Gabby welcomed us with a cup of tea and biscuits and taught us the art of decopage. None of us had previous experience, but Gabbys instructions were comprehensive and as a teacher she was patient and encouraged our creativity! A great Christmas present for my mum sorted!
Gabriella is always very welcoming . She is also versatile, very experienced in a wide range of artistic media. A rare find!
Gabriela's workshops are brilliant. She is welcoming and gives fantastic guidance before you start to compose the details of your piece. Throughout the workshop, Gabriela is helpful and encouraging. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this workshop!
Great course, my second one with Gabriela. I've learnt a lot , she is very knowledgeable and my plate looks beautiful. Thank you :)
My sister and I had a lovely afternoon with Gabriela. We did the decoupage tray workshop and it was great fun! Gabriela is an excellent instructor and her studio is a wonderfully creative space. We both really enjoyed the experience and will definitely be back to do another class soon.
Really enjoyed this class, was really relaxing and fun. Gabriela is a great teacher. Would recommend!
As always Gabriela’s class was wonderful - a great learning experience in lovely surroundings (her studio is a feast) and I came away creatively restored with a beautiful piece of art!
Another great workshop with Gabriela. I took a chair in and she showed me a number of techniques for decorating it. She is so creative and skilful and a great teacher. Loved my day in her bright studio!
Wonderful and relaxing afternoon. My first try at decoupage and loved the end result. Thank you very much!
Fantastic whole day collage workshop. The workshop space is fabulous and bright, well stocked and Gabriela was a fantastic host and teacher. We learned many different techniques and I look forward to doing some more classes here!
Great class, relaxing atmosphere, interesting studio. Gabriela generous with her knowledge. Would highly recommend.
Really enjoyable and fun and Gabriella is a lovely teacher - very patient and clear.
Would recommend highly!
Gabriela was very welcoming. Her knowledge about the subject is very good. Her way of teaching is excellent and clears all the doubt. I would love to attend more classes with her in near future.
The class yesterday was brilliant! Only four of us so lots of one-to-one help and the results - foil printed fabric - is beautiful. It's so nice to sit peacefully and play around with glue and scissors and forget the clamour for three hours!
Much recommended.
A wonderful afternoon learning about decoupage.
A fantastic class with Gabriela. When we arrived she made us all feel comfortable and welcome. Before we started working on our own pieces, she showed us some of the work of people who had done the class before which really helped us to understand what was possible. Throughout the morning, Gabriela answered our questions and helped us feel empowered to fulfil our creative visions. Altogether, it was a wonderful class!
A superb introduction to gold leafing on paper and a taster on fabrics! I am thrilled with what I learnt created and can take on as my tool box to add to other creative talents I want to combine it with. Gabriela’s studio is so calm & creative with wonderful teaching and materials to use.
Very enjoyable and relaxing afternoon spent creating a beautiful and useful tray . Gabriella is a patient and kind teacher and there was a nice atmosphere in her well appointed studio. Would love to come back for more !
Fabulous class (again!) decoupaging a pair of boots into a work of art. Gabriela is a calm, inspiring teacher whose studio is for me a fairytale place of wonder. I could lose myself there! I've come back with original and fun boots and a joyous heart. We all need more craft in our lives!
I upholstered my own chair which was great fun, the effect is great, always a pleasure to joun Gabriela classes
what a lovely afternoon. I feel like I learnt something new and came away with an item I will actually use. Gabriela was so helpful and patient, and her studio was filled with inspiring ideas and objects. Thank you Gabriela!
Loved my collage day with Gabriela. Learnt some new techniques in an atmosphere of calm and sharing. Gabriela is generous and gentle and her space is a treasure trove of arty things. Inspiring!
Very enjoyable and a super beautiful space.
A really fun way to spend an afternoon! Having never done decoupage before, I came in with very low expectations for what I might produce, but Gabriela helped me come up with some ideas and I'm absolutely in love with the tray I created. Now hoping to do more decoupage in the future!
Absolutely loved the class, the teacher, the space, the conversations on "how to turn to art". The full day passed in a flash and Gabriela teaches in a clear and structured manner. She helped me through the process of manifesting my idea, layer by layer on my collage. Thanks Gabriela. It was a treat to be in your studio, and to see your works of art. I will be back. Padma
Awesome class highly recommend..made a great tray decoupage
This was a lovely way to do something creative
Gabriela has lots of experience and is a helpful teacher , you will find lots of inspiration in her studio too!
The venue is completely Covid safe, I also observed other people attending her other courses and this was inspiring too so will be booking again soon!
Great session. Gabriela a very informative teacher. The time just flew
Always a pleasure :-) a great workshop highly recommend
This was a lovely chilled start to the weekend! Recommend this artist teacher.
Always a pleasure to attend Gabriela's studio. I came away with some lovely designs on fabric to use in my next project.
I had a Collage and mixed media workshop with Gabriela on 25/04. Gabriela is a great instructor, I learned so much in just a day. I cannot recommend this course highly enough, I will definitely take another course with Gabriela in the future!
Had a great day learning different techniques for collage. I worked at my own pace with Gabriella's excellent, expert guidance. Looking forward to joining more classes soon. Thank you Gabriela.
This was my 3rd workshop with Gabriela via Obby. I did many more decoupage classes led by her previously and the fact that I keep coming back for more really says it all! I work in advertising and all creativity happens on computer but it's not the same as creating something with your own hands. Gabriela's workshops are great fun and nourishing. She is a great teacher who takes time to help you and answer all your questions. You can follow hear lead and explore your own creative ideas. The workshops inspire me and help me to unlock my own creativity.
Very enjoyable class. Gabriela has excellent knowledge of the craft and very informative about different techniques. A pleasant studio environment too with tasty refreshments supplied throughout the course.
I attended creating pictures with metallic foils recently and really enjoyed the class. Gabriella is an amazing teacher, very patient and explained the processes clearly. I was happy with the class and I would recommend it.
The studio space was so beautiful and peaceful. Gabrielle was so informative and helpful and clearly incredibly experienced. I encourage anyone to do this course who is keen to learn this skill as I deeply enjoyed my time and I know it will help me with my future projects!
I’ve done a number of Gabriela’s classes and have loved them all. The foil art one was great; I got so much out of it in such a short time.
A great way to spend a relaxing fun Saturday morning.
Great technique to learn and try out and we were able to discuss how things can go wrong and what to avoid. Gabriella was very clear at instructions and patient.😁
I'm tempted to say this is Gabriela's best ever course but to do so would be to diminish the others. It was excellent - engaging, satisfying and all the instructions were clear and unambiguous. Thank you! Great class!
Loved the course it was a fantastic way to spend an hour and I have since attempted foiling several bags! Thank you
Pleasant tutor, very helpful. Course was well planned and taught
Enjoyed this course so much. The time just flew. Gabriela is an experienced and giving tutor. And you can’t help but be inspired by working in her studio. I learnt so much and want to develop these new techniques and extend my collage work beyond the page
Awesome class highly recommended great environment and great studio to work in
I decoupaged a large fruit bowl I really enjoyed it and so happy with my work .working with Gabriella is always a pleasure
The class was really good, Gabriella was attentive and very organised. She was clear and explained the technique well along with introducing me to other techniques I could use alongside the foiling.
She created a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere.
Really enjoyable class. Gabriela is a great teacher and very knowledgeable.
Fantastic class. Receiving the materials was like receiving a gift. Really enjoyable!
Great course. Gabriela is very friendly.
So great I always enjoy my classes with Gabriela..
This is the 2nd time I booked a course with Gabriela and really enjoyed it. Love you have a lot of freedom but can always rely on her for feedback, super useful tips and suggestions. Highly recommend booking a class or creative with Gabriela. Her support and experience are invaluable.
really enjoyed the class, it is a fun technique to use with surprising results!
the venue is very nice as well
would recommended the class
I love all of Gabriela’s classes and this one was a favourite. I loved the shoes I decoupaged and can’t wait to wear them. Gabriela is a great teacher and guide and I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Such a joy to meet Gabriela ,who was so generous with her knowledge
And will be doing another class ASAP
Had a great time thanks
really enjoyed my class, lots of great material, nice venue, am very happy with my result, would recommend the class
It Was a little rushed trying to do things in an hour but it was interesting and informative. Gabriela was friendly and took us through the process step by step. It was good to have been sent the materials in advance.
two methods of making a stencil. Use of textile glue. Ironing on foils. Putting more layers on after the first one.
Teacher friend ly and gave very clear instructions. Great material pack sent before class. Stockists list provides.
Easy learning experience using Zoom. Will certainly take more classes.

I was so excited to speak with Gabriela, especially as - while our styles dont match perfectly - her use of colours and mixed mediums are really intersting to me. In addition to some practical suggestions on how to develop specific pieces of my own, she was also kind enough to follow up with an email full of resources on where to learn more about complimentary techniques. Very much looking forward to our follow up.. and, when possible, attending a class at her studio! Thank you Gabriela.. sincerely.. for your energy and contribution to my journey.
Another interesting class. It was good to use unusual images and Gabriela is a clear and thoughtful tutor. It was frustrating being unable to see what other students had achieved. I always find the 'show and tell' on courses one of the best bits, and we need it with all this isolation, shielding and social distancing. More please!
I recently took part in a ‘Drawing with Scissors: Create a Collage Inspired by Matisse’s Cut-outs’ workshop with Gabriela. The online class was thoroughly enjoyable and I learned new art skills also. Gabriela facilitated the session brilliantly guiding everyone in the group throughout the various stages of the art making process. I have signed up for another class with Gabriela and am looking forward to taking part in many more of her classes. Louisa
Great to do something creative, and Gabrielle gave clear instructions and support throughout the workshop. Excellent camera work so that participants could see examples clearly throughout session. Thoroughly enjoyed workshop and feel inspired to do more.
I have already done several courses with Gabriela and, again, I loved it. It was fantastic to learn this new skill, applicable to so many projects! Really enjoyed and would highly recommend!
I really enjoyed this online printing with metallic foils onto fabric class. Gabriella sends you everything you need in the post prior to the class and, using Zoom, she is able to create an excellent interactive learning environment. A lovely way to spend a day in lockdown and I now think I’m equipped to experiment further with my creativity!
It was really amazing everything that we did. Gabriela is a wonderfull artist and the class was interactive and fun!! I'm happy i took the workshop and i will do others in the future too.
Gabriela is a wonderfully creative artist and I've enjoyed her face to face classes before. This was the first online class I've taken with her and it was great...well organised in advance, a well managed Zoom set up with spot on camera angles to enable us to follow her working easily in real time and above all excellent skills teaching, creative inspiration from her previous work and clear follow-up notes. Highly recommend!
A lovely course. Great materials, great teacher and lots of support. Thankyou.
The whole experience was fantastic, and incredibly productive as I got a collage back home in only one day! Gabriela is so patient and helpful; she and her studio are inspirational. It was a great experience that I wOuld repeat.
Fantastic workshop in spite of the limitations of being online. The outcome of the workshop was fantastic and it is always a pleasure to get inspiration from Gabriela and I feel really grateful for all her advice. Already thinking of the next one!
Informative, relaxed and productive. Gabriella has a lovely relaxed manner that makes you feel comfortable from the start. Would join tutor again
Gabriela is an inspiration and makes class very enjoyable
Gabriela shows a fun and clever way to obtain interesting shapes for collage use!! Her demo is easy to understand and sparks the creative spirit! The class could be a bit longer to allow for creative thought and application, but most managed to complete a project with lovely results!
Great reveal ! how simple everyday things can help create such wonderful personalised paper for many uses.
Thank you Gabriela for another wonderful class, we discovered all sorts of new objects to use in our art, and plenty of inspiration from other participants as well. We look forward to joining another class soon!
It was great to get the paints out and use up old food!
Another fun class with Gabriela. I joined a previous class to make my own gift wrap and it was interesting to see what else you can use it for. I need to improve my scissor skills a bit and am glad I used my zig zag scissors. This is definitely something that you can do with kids at home later as well.
Instructor Gabriela is lovely. Demonstration was very good. I was glad I had some experience in the use of acrylics, design and colour. More info on this would have been helpful for a beginner, but I also realize the class was too short for more instruction. I think the class should be a min of 2 hrs to allow for thought process, creativity and drying time of pieces.
I really enjoyed seeing the other participant's work and was curious of how anyone may be using the paper. Again, not enough time for discussion. Reuse of organics and paper was brilliant, and now has me looking at what I can use : save to make more paper pieces! Thanks!
My adult daughter and I absolutely loved this. We did a one and a half hour class with Gabriela and were so thrilled with our new abilities to be able to make home made wrapping up paper we spent the whole of the rest of the weekend playing with the new techniques we learnt and we are never going to buy wrapping up paper again. Results are absolutely gorgeous. And would cost a fortune to buy. Hand printed paper is us.
Really did this class as something to take my mind off covid and get some potentially interesting papers to use in future, and a few tips and ideas. Knew I liked the teacher as had done some decoupage with her. However found that I enjoyed more than expected given I'm not used to this kind of more freehand craft. Actually ended up with something I would put up on my wall!
This was my first online class and really fun and well structured. Gabriela is a wonderful and inspiring artist. She is happy to share ideas and try new things during her class. The demonstrations were great and we had enough time to prep and practice. There was time to show our own pieces to each other. I attended two classes in her studio before and at the end of the class Gabriela showed us some of her art pieces and we could recognise patterns that we created on our own the same day. I can’t wait to attend the next online class to use my creations to make a collage.
I loved this fun class and the gift wrap I created during and after the class that day.
Had the BEST DAY! I decoupaged a little chest of drawers. Gabriella was extremely attentive and I have to say I'm slightly obsessed with découpage now! Will definitely be back to learn more. 100% recommend.
I would definitely recommend this workshop for anyone interested in decoupage. Gabriela was a great teacher and my friend and I spent hours totally absorbed in the class. Though I was a complete novice, I came away with a piece of work I was really proud of. The workshop is held in a lovely space and it was hard not to be inspired by all the great artwork on show. Thanks Gabriela.
The workshop was everything i hoped it would be. A small group so as to have individual attention, no pressure, relaxed and all the materials needed to make a very satisfying object to take home. A lovely way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
The 4 hour decoupage a tray workshop was great. Gabriela is lovely and very professional. The studio is a lovely environment to work in. I did run out of time and was unable to complete my tray. I wish I had gone a little more prepared with an idea in mind.
Fantastic workshop! Gabriela is a wonderfully experienced, gifted and patient tutor. Her studio is a delight and all was so well organised. Absolutely loved it. Can’t wait to try some more découpage.
Gabriela was extremely welcoming; her studio is beautiful and very comfortable. The workshop was brilliant, lots of help and inspiration, even a complete novice will create something wonderful..
It was a really lovely afternoon - friendly, informal, relaxed and informative.
Gabriela was very helpful, a great tutor, and had loads of ideas and techniques to share - her enthusiasm was great.
I came away with a plate to be proud of, more ideas to try and loads of techniques to practice.
Great class
Love it and would like to take the class again.
I attended a Foil Art course with Gabriela which was my third in total. Each course has always been very enjoyable and informative in a relaxed environment with no pressure.
I would thoroughly recommend all of her courses as with any course one always comes away with having learnt something. I love her courses and will definitely be going again.
Gabriella was friendly and inspirational.
It was my second workshop I attended and Gabriela is an amazing person and is a great teacher - again.
I went to the mixed media collage workshop last November and now to the shoe decoupage workshop. I am so happy with the result. My shoes got new heels and a new inner sole and are ready to be loved again.
Thank you so much for your guidance, passion and your attention for detail.
I loved it, it turned out to be such a great gift too! I look forward to the next one I do soon.
This is the fourth course I’ve attended at Gabriela’s art studio . A friendly welcome and a great teacher in a relaxed atmosphere . I was very pleased with the items I have decoupaged and have continued to decoupage at home . Looking forward to next course .
Highly recommended. At the top of her field, I’ve admired Gabriela’s colourful, frequently whimsical exquisitely executed work for sometime. So was thrilled when my sister bought me one of her workshops as a gift.
The glass decoupage workshop was everything and more than I expected - Gabriela is a great hostess creating a welcoming, relaxed environment to learn and make in. As a teacher she “got inside” my idea, patiently guiding me through the process. Stages and techniques were demonstrated to us as a group but there was also plenty individual attention.
Was I delighted with what I made? Absolutely! Thank you Gabriela for your expertise and generosity. I cant wait to give the dish I made back to my sister as part of her birthday.
I loved the class. Gabriella was welcoming and has a beautiful studio decorated with amazing examples of her art works. I had an unusual project in mind, which was going to be a challenge, but Gabriella worked with me to make it happen.
A friend of mine gave me a workshop with Gabriela as a birthday present and it is one of the best present I have ever received, Gabriela is passionate about sharing her knowledge and helping individuals achieve the effects that they would like too, also Gabriela's studio is lovely and cosy and it makes you feel like at home. Looking forward to enjoying more classes in the future. Thanks Gabriela.
Loved this course!! Recycling shoes! Is’t it a wonderful idea? Met fabulous people and Gaby is an excellent artist and teacher that gives you all the tips for you to learn the technique! Left witha beautiful and orginal pair of shoes!
Would highly recommend and will certainly take another class with Gaby!
Lovely begginers course! You learn to transform a plain wooden tray into something beautiful all your guests will compliment! It was a fun day surrounded with lovely people and good to disconnect while doing somethig creative - and useful!
Would highly recommend!!
This course is the most original course I’ve ever attended! I went with an old pair of shoes and left with this funky amazing and like-new pair!!! I weat them to work and I still get compliments about them. Gaby is so professional and a great teacher! Also you get to meet awesone people and its a time to unwind and recylce at the same time! Highly recommended!!
This was such a great class! I worked on a little coffee table which I covered with a world map pattern and pages from old books. I only did one day and it was non-stop even with a small piece of furniture, so that is something to keep in mind when you book. There were a couple of people in the class who were on their second day of working on chairs and they also left with lovely finished pieces but it took them the whole two days to get there. I appreciated being in a small class with plenty of individual help, and found it interesting to see how different all the results were given that we were all using same materials. Wonderful studio and really helpful teacher. Plus healthy lunch and lots of snacks to keep you going during the day! Recommended.
I arrived with a pair of favourite but rather tatty and worn boots, and left with a very funky pair covered in a purple and pink Marimekko pattern. Difficult to believe that paper can be used to upcycle shoes but it works really well, and whenever I wear my boots people ask me where I bought them!
The class was very relaxed and the studio is beautiful, with a lot of Gabriela´s work on display and inspiring bits and pieces. I appreciated the coffee, biscuits and fruit as it is a long class!
Gabriela demonstrated every step of the technique and she also gave us one-to-one help, which was much appreciated. I will be coming back to learn other things at this studio soon, highly recommended class.
Really enjoyable workshop and lunch was delicious. Gabriela's studio is an amazing space to work in, the group was small so we all received a lot of individual support and attention.
My daughter and I were really happy with the Frida Kahlo dolls we had made. We would definitely recommend doing this workshop with Gabriela.
Absolutely brilliant class with the added benefit of a phenomenal lunch. My Frida has been everywhere with me since! I achieved so much more of a complex piece than I thought I could have done in the time allowed. Thanks Gabriela!
This is one of my favourite classes Gabriela is a great host and teacher I have created some lovely work in her classes and recommend this class.
I had a very enjoyable day learning the art of decoupage with Gabriela. She is a very lovely lady & a good teacher.

Last Sunday I was in a full-day Frida's workshop on Gabriela's studio. Great experience from start to finish. Gabriela was a great teacher showing the decoupage and painting techniques.
The group was small which was great because everyone received individual attention and support.
Gabriela is super patient and enthusiastic and her studio is incredible, every corner is very inspirational. Last but not least, the food experience was "a m a z i n g" homemade cook, healthy and tasty, authentic mexican tortillas, great salads an vibrant margaritas! . I would definitely recommend doing this workshop with Gabriela!
Fantastic workshop, really lovely studio, absolutely loved it.
I thoroughly enjoyed the upcycling furniture course. It was very informative and i learned so much. Gabriela Szulman is an excellent tutor and takes time to explain each stage of the course.
I would love to attend a future course.
Gabriela was amazing. She was so supportive, full of ideas. The lunch and snacks were great too, way in excess of what I would have expected. It was such a treat of a day and a great opportunity to immerse oneself in a project, supported by expert advice and leave the external world behind. A very therapeutic experience for anyone regardless of experience.
Gabrielle is a great tutor. She is friendly, knows her crafts inside out, informative and very talented. I left her course with enough knowledge to continue practicing on my own to further develop my skills but would not hesitate to attend another of her workshops. As another plus her premises are inspiring and her cookies and lunch are delicious. What more could you ask for?Lynda Parkinson-Garde
It was an exceptional workshop delivered by Gabriela. She was extremely kind, welcoming and so were the other people doing activities there. I picked up new skills, especially to do with prepping and maintaining a good technic.
Gabriela was so knowledgeable and her passion about decoupage was very contagious.
For anyone who likes learning new DIY skills and wit special interests in upcycling, this is the perfect workshop to go.
I’ll definitely go back!
This was a very enjoyable course. I was totally new to decoupage and although interested in art I had never done any practical art since leaving school, many years ago!
Gabriela was a fantastic tutor , kind , helpful and encouraging. The whole process lasted all day and so calls for concentration and application but the time literally flew by! Her studio/ home is delightful a gallery in itself. We were made to feel very welcome and she provided a wonderful luncheon for us. She is an interesting host and I thoroughly recommend this course to anyone considering it. My daughter and I took home wonderful Frida Kahlo inspired dolls to hang on the wall and we will certainly be returning to do another of Gabriela's courses soon.
I did the full day workshop with Gabriella Szulman recently (I had earlier done the half day decoupage workshop and enjoyed it so much I came back to do the full day workshop) Gabriela creates a relaxed and safe environment to learn and experiment, all the while supported by Gabriella both from a technical point of view (materials, tools, techniques) as well as an esthetical PoV (what looks good, how to improve things) and has lots of examples and materials available to be inspired by. Many thanks Gabriela!
Gabriella’s workshop was wonderful and I look forward to returning. All the materials needed and so much more. A small group of four only meant she was able to give us all attention and answer all our questions. The delicious lunch she prepared and small touches of tea biscuits and strawberries were so thoughtful and gracious just like Gabriella
Gabriela's decoupage class was brilliant - it was informative and relaxed and she was very generous with her materials. I would definitely attend another one of her classes.
Really great class I was so happy with the finished product, a really great atmosphere to work in too. I look forward to booking another decoupage class with Gabriela in the future.
Gabriela was a really great teacher and there was so much choice of designs to use. A great introduction to decoupage, would definitely recommend.
A fantastic afternoon decoupaging a pair of shoes - I mean, who knew that was even a thing, right? You supply the shoes, and Gabriela supplies everything else, including decent coffee, choco Liebnitz biccies, and a wicked soundtrack. I started with a pair of boring beige pumps, and left with a unique pair covered with vintage maps. Definitely going to go back to do something else there.
It was a great class - I made a wonderful glass plate for my mum's Christmas present and she cried! Gabriella had lots of materials, and even printed off some text for me which was very kind.
I never considered myself naturally creative so I was very unsure about how I would go at this workshop. Right from the start, Gabriela created a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, and provided really clear and helpful guidance to get me started. Gabriela provided a fabulous range of materials, and had an excellent knack of drawing out my own ideas and inspiration and then advising on how I might best give effect to them, as well as making her own creative suggestions. Gabriela was on hand through out and provided a really high level of individual attention. She stayed completely calm - even when things didn't go quite as I planned - and was really reassuring and encouraging. I was absolutely delighted with my final piece - it far exceeded my expectations of what I might be capable of - and that is due in no small measure to Gabriela's expert input and tuition. It was one of the most absorbing, interesting and fun workshops I've done, and my piece now hangs proudly on my kitchen wall. I cannot recommend Gabriela's classes highly enough.
I absolutely LOVED this workshop. It's very relaxing and therapeutic. Gabriela was really kind and generous with her comments and feedback and would advise you on even the smallest of details. The studio itself is very cosy and comfortable (with good music in the background) and it was perfect for a rainy London day. You get to finish the plate and take home a ready to use product. Great class!
It was a great workshop! The first one for me.So nice to finally meet a lady who does decoupage in London! I was very pleased with the project we did.And it was a small group which I like.Full marks!😊
Gabriela's venue/studio is lovely, a nice courtyard in front with birds in the trees, spacious with kitchen facilities too for the all important tea!
The class was a group activity as part of my hen-do (we were very well behaved!), decoupage onto glass plates. It was fun, simple enough that everyone could take part and come away with something unique and beautiful, and really creative so that we could all flex our artistic muscles. Gabriela was great at teaching the skills needed so that we felt we could go away and make more on our own afterwards.
Perfect activity for six, with time for drinks and chatting while we waited for things to dry. We had a really fab afternoon and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the workshop.
We went for an afternoon of decoupage on glass plates, for our friend's hen do. Gabriela was fantastic and very helpful. She talked us about the process, gave us step-by-step advice and guided us into making pieces we were actually very happy with, had a fantastic selection of materials and enough variety for everyone to be as creative as we could be, with an infectious enthusiasm for the craft. I was inspired and would love to go back and try another of her classes!
Gabriela was a fantastic host and expert teacher for a friend's hen party afternoon. The studio is beautiful and we had lots of fun being creative and getting to know each other... with plates to take home as mementos of the occasion. Thank you Gabriela!
I really enjoyed my glass decoupage class. The venue was a perfect setting for a fun crafting afternoon. Gabriela paced the class perfectly, particularly as I was a beginner. She was friendly and helpful giving us ideas and lots of materials to work with. I wouldn't hesitate to re-book. The whole experience inspired me to experiment at home!
I was given a voucher as a present and chose this course. I was very pleased with my choice: Gabriela is a patient and inspiring teacher and I learnt a new skill and have a creation to keep. Highly recommended.
Wonderful teacher
Wonderful venue
All in all a thoroughly enjoyable experience and worth every penny
I did a tray decoupage workshop with a group of friends. Gabriela is a friendly and inspiring teacher and it sparked an ongoing interest in the technique for me. Her studio is a lovely place to work and has lots of examples of her own work too. With lots of tea and cake along with the class, what's not to like!
Great workshop. Plenty of attention from Gabriela and everything explained at the right pace. A fun afternoon and I love the plate I ended up with!
The class with Gabriela was wonderful.
Really enjoyed the class with Gabriela - she was lovely and a great teacher, and I found the class both fun and relaxing. Decoupage isn't overly difficult but is super effective, so we all came away with really cool plates and tea lights. It's a skill you could definitely take away and do at home.
Really loved this workshop and Gabriela was an amazing host and teacher. She explained the process of making a collage thoroughly and allowed sufficient time to test different acrylics and techniques. And always willing to offer a helping hand or word of advice.
I have attended a number of courses for various different hobbies, but the Collage and Multi Media with Gabriela is one of the best and I will be returning to do it all over again. A lovely atmosphere and Gabriela is so helpful - I really enjoyed by day.
Gabby welcomed us with a cup of tea and biscuits and taught us the art of decopage. None of us had previous experience, but Gabbys instructions were comprehensive and as a teacher she was patient and encouraged our creativity! A great Christmas present for my mum sorted!
Gabriella is always very welcoming . She is also versatile, very experienced in a wide range of artistic media. A rare find!
