“Had the most wonderful time learning to make stained glass. Hideko was patient and kind, she had a very interesting story with a lot of skills up her sleeve. The time went very quick and we walked away loving our pieces! Would highly recommend!”
“I enjoyed the class so much! There was a large selection of textured glasses to choose from. I would definitely recommend this class to a friend or someone looking for another craft to try. Thank you Hideko.”
“I had a fantastic experience at Hideko’s stained glass workshop. It is perfect for anyone curious about the art form or looking for a fun, hands-on creative outlet. Hideko is incredibly generous with her time and vast expertise, providing all the necessary tools—and even snacks! She patiently answered my many questions, ensuring I didn't just leave with a beautiful sun catcher, but also a solid foundation of skills I’m excited to keep building on. Fantastic value for money; I can’t recommend this enough and look forward to returning for another session.”
“We completed the Sun Catcher class with stained glass making and our teacher was Hideko. The class was all set up when we arrived and the class was personalised and ready to start when we were.
The materials that were provided were easily accessible, well in reach and in variety for an expansive choice.
The tools we had to use were clearly explained, simple to use for first timers and given to each person to ensure access and ease of class flow.
Hideko was extremely clear in explaining each step and sprinkled humour throughout the class. Her calm and patient tone made the class feel comfortable and no mistakes or questions felt too silly. She connected with each of us on a personal note, making a point of learning each persons name and ensuring that they felt comfortable in the space.
Overall the class was fantastic, everyone walked away from the session feeling successful and like they had spent 1 hour in a room rather than 5. Very accessible and good for first timers along with someone with some experience aswell.
Thankyou Hideko, will definitely look at returning.”
“Such a fantastic class, the teacher was so passionate about the craft, and explained everything in detail so the instruction were easy to follow.
The metal work is very forgiving so it’s very beginner friendly. I’m so happy with how mine turned out.”
“My two friends and I enjoyed a private class which was very enjoyable. Hideko, the teacher, was excellent, explained and guided us through every step. Comfortable space, easy to find, great fun.”
