I had such a lovely Sunday morning making the Bristol balloon print! It was very mindful and relaxing in a bright space and the host was really lovely and helpful. I loved mixing the colours and tapping into my creative side, I'll even frame it!! Would 100% recommend.
Quite amazing what we managed to produce in 2 Hrs. I am actually going to frame mine! Great guidance on mixing colours, as having no artistic genes, usually and art work I try (usually with the kids) turns out brown.! Thank you, really enjoyed myself.
Fantastic morning I loved every minute of the session.
