Rachel Langley reviewed: Glass Fusion - Christmas Wreath Decoration Workshop

"Welcomed by tutor and time spent talking through options. Steps shown and guidance given. Able to work at own pace and to use our own ideas. Advice available at all times. Health and safety PPE available. Booking team did not inform attendees to book in and register numberplate. Tutor unsure when items jade would be ready for collection, as this was a Christmas craft perhaps a date late November would be better. Waiting now to be contacted when item ready but unsure who or how we are being contacted. Overall a good course and would attend another glass workshop."

Stanwick Lakes Art and Craft Courses responded:

"Thank you for leaving us a review. We are pleased you enjoyed the course and have taken your comments on-board. Apologies if your vehicle registration details were not taken by our reception team. The 'Access' email you received upon booking should have advised you to give your car details to the team so our apologies if this was not clear or if they did not ask you for it when you booked in. I understand the course tutor has now been in contact with you directly and let you know that your items are now ready for collection here at Stanwick Lakes. Best wishes, The Stanwick Lakes team."

"This was my first glass fusion course and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Sally is a very patient, knowledgeable tutor and we all produced several Christmas decorations in the 2 1/2 hours. We were lucky to have sunny weather, so the classroom in the Stanwick Lakes Visitor Centre, with its large windows gave us a lovely view outside. I am looking forward to attending future courses with Sally."
