Fabulous workshop!

Silvia is a wonderful teacher who is a master at what she does. With her guidance I made a beautiful 2D paper picture of plants which hangs on my wall with pride. Silvina brings templates and can help you make bespoke designs too. Her classes are relaxed and fun and there is tea and cake! Perfect way to spend some time!

Silvina taught us how to cut beautiful botanical shapes out to make our own pieces of botanical art. The classes were very well prepared for, Silvina was friendly and a great teacher and we were all very proud of our work at the end. The class was held in the Greenhouse conservatory at Emmaus Brighton which is the perfect location for crafting. We would highly recommend Silvina as a teacher and look forward to more of her classes in the future.

A fantastic afternoon spent with Silvina cutting paper shapes and learning how to mount them in a 'shadow box.' Would love to do more in due course!

Silvina was excellent, the setting was lovely, and I got to spend a morning creating a beautiful piece of art. She also brought along delicious cakes and tea, and was well prepared for any mistakes we were all making. Highly recommended!

A superb course with Silvinia. A choice of pictures to do with all the materials provided to create a wonderful picture. Silvinia has great knowledge and expertise and is very personable. Thank you so much

An absolutely fabulous workshop with the multitalented Silvina. We had a choice of a cityscape of beech scene. She took us through the process of cutting the components, creating the background and layering the images in a 3-D shadow box

This was three hours of fun and we all came away with a very personal work of art. I would recommend this course to anyone interested in paper crafts. Will be attending another course with Silvina in the future.
