Joy Rugman - 8 March 2024
Was so looking forward to this class and I was not disapppointed. This is the third event I've attended at Craft My Day and they have all been excellent. If you are at all tempted by any of the sessions I highly recommend you give one a try. They are very relaxed and friendly and no matter what your previous art or craft experience you go home with something worthy of display. Not quite sure how they manage that so effortlessly but they do!! On your own or with a friend it's a lovely way to spend an evening.

Great atmosphere and the perfect amount of advice and guidance.
Georgie - 23 September 2023
Really great morning with Rachel, learnt loads about Powertex, and different ways to use it. Thanks Rachel!
Ruth Allen - 15 March 2023
Completely out of my comfort zone - but what a wonderful experience! Have used Powertex before but not on this scale. The different transformations to the canvas were incredible- I won’t spoil the surprise by telling you what the canvas was subjected to-but it all worked. Five very different canvases even though we all had the same brief “Cityscape”. Everyone had a brilliant time. I’m going to have to move soon to a bigger property with room for my Craft My Day projects! If in doubt just book - you won’t regret it.

Fantastic class... Rachel is lovely, very knowledgeable and friendly! The workshop is good fun, you get to play on canvas with paints, powertex, different objects... I am very pleased with my final piece and I'm coming back for a second class :)
