INTRODUCTION TO CRICUT

“BRILLIANT. THE TUTOR WAS LOVELY AND EXPLAINED EVERYTHING SO WELL. MY FIRST PROPER OUTING ALONE SINCE LOCKDOWN SO I WAS VERY NERVOUS BUT VERY REASSURED BY HOW WELL SET UP THE WORKSHOP WAS IN THESE UNUSUAL TIMES. THANK YOU SO MUCH. ”

STUDENT

“THIS WAS A WELL LED AND EXTREMELY RELAXING CLASS TO ATTEND. WE WERE SHOWN EXAMPLES OF WHAT COULD BE ACHIEVED IN THE SESSION, SOME TECHNICAL POINTERS AND CLEAR SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. IT WASN'T LONG BEFORE WE WERE 'HANDS ON'. ALL THROUGH THE SESSION WERE ENCOURAGED TO TRY OUR OWN STYLES BUT ASSISTANCE WAS ALWAYS PROMPT IF WE NEEDED IT. THE REFRESHMENTS WERE MOST WELCOME. OUR GLASS WAS FIRED, BEAUTIFULLY PACKED AND AVAILABLE AT THE WORKSHOP ON THE DAY PROMISED. CLARE WAS EXTREMELY SENSITIVE AND AWARE OF WHAT WE WOULD LIKE TO TAKE AWAY FROM THE COURSE. I WOULD THOROUGHLY RECOMMEND THAT ANYONE SHOULD TRY THIS CRAFT. ”

“THIS WORKSHOP WAS SO MUCH FUN! I WENT WITH A COUPLE OF FRIENDS, AND IMMEDIATELY WE WERE PUT AT EASE, BY THE FRIENDLY TEACHING STYLE, RELAXED APPROACH AND ATMOSPHERE. THE OUTCOMES LOOK SO IMPRESSIVE, BUT IT'S SO SIMPLE! DETAILS WERE ALSO GIVEN AS TO THE BEST PLACES TO BUY MATERIALS AND A WORKSHEET TO CONTINUE AT HOME. WE WOULD LOVE TO COME BACK TO CREATE ANOTHER MACRAME MASTERPIECE! IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT BOOKING, DO NOT HESITATE, BOOK NOW.”

“I HAD A GREAT TIME IN OUR SMALL CLASS OF THREE BEGINNERS. IT WAS A THREE HOUR MORNING SESSION, AND WE WERE PLIED WITH COFFEES, TEAS AND BISCUITS THROUGHOUT. VICKY WAS VERY THOROUGH AND PATIENT IN EXPLAINING WHAT TO DO. I CAME AWAY WITH A SAMPLE BOARD OF THE 4 TECHNIQUES THAT WE HAD LEARNT (PLUS A PRINTED AIDE-MÉMOIRE), AS WELL AS TWO PICTURE FRAMES TO WHICH I HAD APPLIED MY CHOICE OF PAINT TECHNIQUES. I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO HAVE HAD THE OPTION OF SOME BOLDER PAINT COLOURS WITH WHICH TO WORK, AND HAD THE OPPORTUNITY OF TRYING OUT GILDING WAX. ALL SAID, IT WAS A GOOD INTRODUCTION.”

“I ATTENDED THE UPHOLSTERY COURSE ON A SATURDAY MORNING FOR FOUR WEEKS. BOB, OUR TEACHER WAS PROFESSIONAL, KNOWLEDGEABLE AND VERY PATIENT! HE WAS HAPPY TO EXPLAIN TASKS NUMEROUS TIMES AND WAS REASSURING IF THINGS WENT SLIGHTLY WRONG! I THOROUGHLY ENJOYED THIS COURSE AND WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE WHO MAY BE INTERESTED. BOB WAS SO GENEROUS WITH HIS TIME AND MY FOOTSTOOL TAKES PRIDE OF PLACE IN THE LOUNGE RECEIVING TOTAL ADMIRATION FROM THE FAMILY. ”
