“Thoroughly enjoyed the class and mended some mugs, jugs and lids of some of my most precious ceramics. Really happy with the result. Attended the course as a birthday gift with my eldest daughter. We both had a great time. Teacher was lovely and she made it really easy to do a good job on the pieces that now look lovely again. You don't need to bring your own things. There were 6 in the class and I was the only one that had pieces to repair. I'd do it again, expecially when there's a food safe glue available in this country and I can repair the rest of my things.”

“Amanda is a fantastic teacher , full of enthusiasm and easy to talk to . Her lovely studio is in an artist community on Trinity Buoy Wharf which is also a great place to visit . We chose a piece of pottery and were then doing Kintsugi almost immediately and we all had such fun creating a beautiful piece from broken pottery . Highly recommend this class .”

“The best part of my day getting some mindfulness in a creative and meaningful way, even more special as it was international women’s day. Amanda was kind and helpful, keeping a good balance of teaching / demonstrating/ letting us be hands on independently. The music playlist was just right too. Highly recommend.”
