This was so much fun! Wish I'd booked it for the 2hrs, but the 1hr was still really good and an unusual option for mothers day where me my two teenagers, my husband and our mothers all had a great time!

The class was good fun, the teachers were helpful and willing to show you different techniques on how to build the flower. The room itself was spacious and had AC which was great in this heat. I had a 1-hour session booked, which felt a bit rushed so would definitely book at least 2 hours in future. Only points for improvement: the countdown timers for the class started as soon as the technicians were showing you how to create the first piece of glass, instead of when you were given the chance to start creating yourself. It didn't eat up much time but with an experience like this where you need all the practice you can get, those extra minutes would have been nice. Also, it would've been good to be shown a visual guide of roughly what you were making within the session. As you enter the room, there are a few examples of flowers that'd been made previously, but no indicators as to how long they took - would be nice to see what you are working towards and how to achieve a specific look if you had one in mind. Great experience nonetheless!

I thoroughly enjoyed this class. Our teacher Ella was so lovely. I found the whole thing very therapeutic as I completely zoned ou while making my flower. I'd definitely go again and i'd do the longer class to create more elaborate leaves.
