Kate Morrell willow sculpture reviews

M and J reviewed: Kate Morrell willow sculpture courses

"We both really enjoyed the day. Much to our surprise – we were complete beginners - we each managed to complete a running duck. Kate gave clear instructions and helped with the tricky bits. She had already prepared the feet, and the willow ball one starts off with, which meant we could do it all in a day. Her husband made a lovely lunch of some pizza, well-filled cobs, some crisps, and water. Tea and coffee available throughout. A wonderful and productive day."

"Just had a fabulous day making a willow sculpture Stags Head on my second course with Kate. My stags head looks as impressive as the heron I made on my first course. Thank you Kate for your patience, help and sense of humour. Am planning what to make next time Kate. My siblings were so proud of the herons they made with your help too. Thank you"

"My friend Kaz and I went to Kate Morrell's willow sculpting class on Sat 8th Oct We had a fabulous time Kate and her husband made us so welcome. There was a lot of fun and laughter. I made a hare, my friend a lop-eared rabbit, there were also running ducks and a pheasant. Kate has a great sense of humour and is really helpful. Her husband was delightful and did coffees/teas and our lunch which was lovely . Will definitely recommend it and go again myself. Thanks regards Carol and Kaz. "

"I’m not into crafting but wanted to give this a go as I love my garden and knew a willow sculpture would be a great addition to it. There were 4 ladies on my course. 3 of us opted for herons, which Kate said was usually the most popular choice, and the other lady wanted to make a dog. I knew I was not a natural willow crafter straight away, but Kate was always there to demonstrate and help me out. I came home with a beautiful heron which has been greatly admired and looks fantastic in my garden. Everyone went home with a unique piece of art that we had (mostly) made ourselves! A lovely day."

"Firstly my apologies it has taken me this long to leave a review - not sure where the time has gone. I have nothing but good things to say about Kate and the course. She and her husband were very welcoming and the environment for doing the course, in a tent in their beautiful garden, is amazing. I could have quite easily sat in their garden for the afternoon with their dog and enjoyed their company and the sunshine, let alone doing the course. My wife and I both did a heron each and we were amazed that we were able to create something so large in just one day without much of a clue what we were doing! Kate was an excellent teacher and was supportive of my at time haphazard efforts and always willing to help un-wonky my bird! It was a willow wedding anniversary present and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you again!"

"We had a great day with Kate. I made a Heron, my daughter made a Pheasant. We were both beginners and even though we were in a group of 8, Kate gave us lots of help and advice and generally encouraged us to make amazing willow sculptures. We enjoyed sandwiches, pizza and cakes for lunch, and plenty of tea and coffee throughout the day. We would definitely recommend the course. Leave plenty of room in your car, my Heron is taller than me!"

"I bought this course for my wife, and she absolutely loved it. Kate was an incredibly patient teacher, the class size was small allowing 1-1 help, the setting was wonderful, and it was an amazing day. My wife was an absolute beginner but by the end of the day had produced a wonderful sculpture. Can't recommend this course enough."

Freddie reviewed: Willow obelisk workshop

"We had a fantastic day, learning how to make willow obelisks. Lovely and relaxing setting in a marquee inside a large garden. Kate and Dave were really nice people. Interesting to chat to and easy to learn from. Despite ourselves, with good tuition, we came away with good looking obelisks now sitting in our garden. We had a nice break in the middle of the session for lunch around the garden table. All in all, we were really glad to have gone along. Strongly recommended."

"I had the best of times. Made to feel very welcome and Kate was so patient and supportive. I would recommend the course to both crafters and those that don’t feel they are crafters, like me. Kate ensures you leave with a sculpture. Great day!"

"I had a great time willow weaving with Kate and others who were on the course that day. I had gone on my own and everyone was very friendly which was great. Kate is very skilled at what she does and seemed to have lots of tips to help us make our designs look good, she clearly is a very talented artist too. We were fortunate with the weather so had a lovely time in the marquee in the beautiful garden. Thanks for a great day ?"

Martin reviewed: Kate Morrell willow sculpture courses

"An intensive and fun introduction to willow weaving in the studio set in Kate's lovely garden - which had examples of her work dotted around for us to get inspiration from. With Kate's expert guidance three herons, a rabbit, pheasant, a duck and a chicken left in the clutches of the course members. Thoroughly recommended."

"Had a wonderful day out on Kates willow course. Kate was an excellent teacher and was very patient with us all. We were given an excellent lunch and I went home with a beautiful Pheasant sculpture. I will certainly be booking another course later in the year."

Janice Weston Smith reviewed: Kate Morrell willow sculpture courses

"My husband and I attended the course on the 22nd January 2022. We enjoyed our day and found it quite challenging but Kate was excellent in aiding and abetting. My chicken worked out well once I could see where I was going, and the dachshund, which was a bit ambitious for a day, turned out really well after much assistance from Kate. Both were instantly recognisable to our grandchildren. Lunch was soup and filled rolls….excellent homemade produce and along with cake and hot drinks kept us going. I found it fascinating watching Kate working and seeing balls of woven willow become herons and an owl in flight. We would definitely go again. Now I can see how it works I might even be more adventurous and create a flock of hens. Thank you Kate"

Moira reviewed: Christmas wreath workshop

"Well worth the money! Lovely relaxed atmosphere. Started the morning thinking: I can’t do this. With a bit of patience and gentle guidance from the very talented Kate I eventually grasped what I needed to do. I thoroughly enjoyed the process and am very proud of my first attempt!! Thank you Kate have a wonderful Christmas. Hopefully see you next year to learn another craft!!"
