I received this class as a gift and was initially nervous about completing the garden workshop, however Kathy made it so enjoyable. Her mother in law as assistant was also lfriendly. The class was extremely well organised and Kathy was patient and helpful. She has a lovely friendly manner which made it less daunting. I would definitely gift one of these classes or do the terrarium one next. Thanks  + more

My friend and I throughly enjoyed the Peony Rose class. This was my a gift to her for her 70th birthday. The Peonies are beautiful. Jemina is a great teacher, she explained a lot about flower arranging and how to keep the flowers looking fabulous for as long as possible. We will be back to participate in another class. Thanks Jemina for a lovely afternoon. Faye and Helen

Kochaporn Vimalapanich




Booked this as my cousin's birthday present and it was totally worth it. The studio was clean, organized, calm, and looked aesthetically pleasing. I was a bit worried before booking since English is not our first language, but the teacher was very kind, explaining each step clearly. Overall 10/10, would recommend, and I'll definitely go back for other workshops

Meaghan Keogh




This class was given to me as a gift - I was very unsure what to expect but absolutely loved every minute of it. Hirotmi (please forgive me if my spelling is incorrect!) was so patient and helpful with me. She made sure that I understood every step very clearly before I began to work through it. I highly recommend this class to anyone - even if it is just to learn a bit about Japanese culture.

This soap making workshop was a blast, it was so much fun measuring mixing blending and the lovely aromas wafted in the air.

I am a bit of a fan of the tv show Blown Away - so for Christmas my husband purchased us this class as a gift. What a gift it was.
