Fantastic teaching from Dulse - thank you. We loved every moment. Would have loved a cup of tea, a longer session, and just slightly larger range of glaze colours. However, I would recommend highly to all my friends.

Great experience. Chris provided a great demonstration and was then very patient with us all as we attempted our own creations. Class size of 8 worked well as Chris had enough time for everyone. Looking forward to collecting my finished creation!!
