I booked a class with Eleanor as a birthday gift for my Mum. We both had the loveliest time learning with Eleanor, she’s so patient and kind, and tailored the class to us. She has so much skill and knowledge and is an all round lovely human! Thanks Eleanor 😍 Highly recommend!

Spent a beautiful morning learning calligraphy with Eleanor - we had a lovely time, learned a new skill and had lots of fun and laughs - and we now have beautiful kits to practice with! Eleanor was so helpful and kind and we really enjoyed our time with her. Thank you Eleanor for a brilliant workshop - couldn't recommend it more!
