How to get there
What people are saying
Lovely workshop, it was nice to do something new and my friends and I found it so relaxing too!
Sarah was really friendly and provided clear instructions and a stencil to create a wonderful paper cut. She was open to people doing their own projects and really knowledgeable answering questions.
A very enjoyable 'taster' morning, filled with as much as could be fitted into a short time. I think we all came away with sufficient expertise to be able to pursue this craft. Sarah was a friendly and capable tutor.
