Rosie reviewed: Evening Woodcarving Taster Workshop

"My sister and I really enjoyed our wood carving class with Clunie - it was wonderful. Clunie is incredibly knowledgeable and skilled, guiding us through each step with clear instructions and recapping the steps again so we could start afresh. We're excited to use the techniques we learned to create something beautiful. Thank you, Clunie!"

Clunie Fretton responded:

"Thank you Rosie! It was great to have you both join the lesson. I was really impressed by what you made, and you were both so positive and engaged. Good luck with your future carving, and feel free to send me an email if you ever need advice."

"Introduction to wood carving A very enjoyable experience. Clunie was very personable and professional. She immediately introduced the equipment we were using and how to use it safely. This was a small group which was perfect for allowing Clunie to give individual attention to all those who were there. She was extremely patient and encouraging. Thank you Clunie. "
