“Here’s a tightened version: Booked this as an anniversary activity having never touched glass in my life. Two hours, zero experience between us, and we both walked away with something that actually looks good. The tutor is patient, the instruction is clear, and the structure of the session makes sense. My wife went for the intricate blossom and absolutely nailed it. I picked the easier bamboo and daisies option and was quietly impressed with myself. Decent place, good experience, would go back. Recommended.”

“This was a really fun class! It was my first time and I came wanting to make some custom beads and they were game to help make my bead dreams come true. Instructors were helpful and I’m looking forward to going back!”

“Teacher was great and super helpful. This is a fun class to try, especially if you are looking to switch off for a few hours! Loved the flower, however I was gutted one of the petals fell off.”

“I really enjoyed the class. The teachers are patient and kind. I booked the two hour slot, which still didn’t feel enough time, as it takes time to get familiar with the process. There’s a lot of people in the class, which means you don’t get as hands-on training as I was hoping. But really enjoyed this regardless and so happy with my flower!!”

“The teachers were really helpful and guided you well. The two-hour session felt relaxed and not a race against time, especially as you start to find your rhythm and workings, you can get focussed. However, I got so engrossed that I managed to burn myself on the glass and that was painful. As a novice, I didn’t want to be too ambitious and went with the cherry blossom. The assembling of the whole structure was tricky and fiddly, but got there in the end! The outing was a birthday gift to my sister who opted to created a flower.”
