Diane and Sam were really welcoming and had lots of different options and different things to do!
VictoriaHad a lovely prosecco & pottery session with the fantastic Sarah! Was such a relaxing environment and really connected with my creative side which I thought I’d lost !
SophieWe did the pottery painting session with Carla for a friends hens party. It was soo much fun, the staff were super friendly and helpful especially Carla and the whole thing was a great experience. I would highly recommend for friends or team building activity. I will definitely be coming back
NatalieVery enjoyable well-informed and well-organised event. Yet to pick up my finished pot but I have faith they'll do a fine job. Definitely recommend.
HildegardeGreat way to spend a Friday night learning some new skills in a relaxed and friendly environment. Our teacher Jack was very knowledgeable and I can’t wait to use my terracotta planter at home. Would highly recommend!
HarrietAmazing class, lots of material to choose from and knowledgeable teacher! If you are looking for a creative yet relaxing activity this is the right class, super recommended
Marta RomanoWe had a lovely time! Carla was really friendly and patient with us. Great balance of giving us useful instructions and allowing us to do our thing. Will definitely be back :)
IsabellaMe and my friend really enjoyed this class, would thoroughly recommend! Kirsty was a welcoming and enthusiastic host, and was always happy to help with the project and provide support. I also felt safe with the Covid prevention measures in place.
BethVery good really enjoyed
SophiaReally great class happy to return again I really reccomend
SophiaDidn't feel it much of a class. The teacher (not Amy by the way, who was meant to have been specialised in textile design and embroidery at unviersity - so the description is a lie) taught us a couple basic stitches very quickly and then left us to our own devices. There were 2 other classes going on at the same time and same teacher was handling all of them. Why pay for a class if the teacher isn't even there half the time? Moreover, the other stitches weren't taught until I specially asked to be taught them and teacher was suprised I actually wanted to gosh *learn* more techniques. Pretty disappointing. I am to learn and be taught not sit and just use the provided materials.
AmmarVery nice studio with a lovely host. I enjoyed the class and learned some useful basic technics. Will defo return !
KasiaThe class was great! We had so much fun coming up with designs, carving out our lino and churning out multiple prints. Diana was super warm, welcoming and helpful in getting our prints to turn out how we imagined them, offering tips and advice throughout. A sick evening activity!
FilipReally fun couple of evenings, very relaxed and I’ll definitely be going back!
SophieI went to my first class at MYO and it was a great way to spend a weeknight! I went by myself so was a little nervous but everybody was so friendly and the whole group were chatting all evening. Our teacher Charlie was brilliant - so funny and helpful and made it possible for all of us to embroider the design we wanted..: even though some of the learners had quite ambitious ideas!! MYO is a great venue to be in , and you can see all the crafty bits displayed so I’m already planning what my next class will be!
JessieWe had a fantastic time on our life drawing session - two hours flew by! Both the teacher and model were lovely and the studio space was great. We would love to come back some time and try more activities!
JamesThe class was loads of fun! Sam was a great teacher and the whole experience was very enjoyable! Would definitely recommend!
JennyIt was amazing! I had it as a surprise event with my friends and everyone was so focused! It was a very lovely space where anyone can bring out their creativity. I would highly recommend if any one is looking for a fun and practical event for a weekend. The staffs were great in communication and super helpful!! Thank you again!
EunaRun by lovely, friendly people in a colourful studio. If you're looking for a more formal pottery education, I wouldn't recommend it. This is more of a laid back fun Sunday afternoon activity, great for groups of friends and hen parties, etc.
CarmenReally good fun and relaxed vibe! Came away with a nice dish and coaster that I painted
LisaReally good workshop, nice that there was a small group and we were able to bring our own prosecco. The woman taking the group was brilliant and put us all at ease and gave us all fantastic guidance for our designs. Would definitely love to do this again.
GemmaI had a great time doing this workshop, totally disconnected from the rest of the world and focused on my pieces that hopefully will come out nice from the kiln!
SaraGreat evening and learned lots!
SarahI have fully enjoyed the class and the host was lovely and welcoming. The place is really lovely and very easy to get to, less than 5 minutes from the Borough Station. I would definitely return for other classes in the future.
BozenaNice location, people. Shame it was so short.
LydiaLuisa was a great teacher - super welcoming and clear at giving instructions. Really enjoyed the classes! Thanks! :)
ChescaI loved the class. Lucia was a great teacher - giving us space to experiment but always on hand if we had a question. It was very relaxing to be creative and work with my hands. I was excited to return to the following 2 sessions as the atmosphere in the class was really friendly.
IsabelleHad great fun, lovely teachers and fab environment. So many bits and bobs to choose from
philippaWe really enjoyed our Christmas wreath making workshop. Fun creative weekend activity :)
EmilyThe venue (Peckham Levels) was lovely and spacious. It was my first time making a wreath so needed lots of help. Thanks to the lovely teacher, I came home with a masterpiece. Thoroughly enjoyed the class. Will definitely be back to make another wreath as a present for my mother in law.
Johanna LehaneThe studio space itself was lovely and full of creative materials to use. We made a great set of decorations to go on the tree at home. The were very helpful and great fun!
BartLots of fun and creativity in a relaxed environment, really enjoyed it! Very well run class ensured I produced something that I will be proud to show off this Christmas. Well done guys, will return!
TonyGreat fun! Can't wait to put them up on the tree, a lot more personal than normal :) Thanks Diana and Sam
ClemencyGreat class! my 2nd one I plan to go again
SophiaExcellent
SophiaExcellent workshop. Really creative and friendly people.
JenniferWhat a fun class! There was an intro to colour theory and colour mixing, and Polly gave lots of 1-1 help and feedback and made us feel at ease. I think I am feeling a lot more confident with my watercolour painting. Great venue too. Thank you.
MichelleAwesome class and a great teacher! I'll definitely be back!
JessicaReally fun, 3-part pinch pot workshop. The instructors were knowledgeable, welcoming and very helpful. The class size was really small, just four of us, so we could have all the help we needed. It was very relaxing and nice to get a chance to be creative. We made four different pots and then decorated them however we liked.
ClodaghGreat experience. loved the environment and staff were really helpful .
SolmazEverything was fine. Maybe improve the teaching, like non only trying yourself but see the teacher show us how to do it
Valerialoved the class, very nice teacher, great range of available supplies, very pleased with the result, the venue is nice too :)
LilySuch a great class! So much fun, everyone really nice and such a relaxing evening. Definitely coming back! A
AnnabelJust fantastic! A lovely evening with nice friendly people. Would highly recommend and definitely intend to go back for another class or drop in. Thank you :)
OliviaI booked this as an anniversary surprise for our first wedding anniversary, which is paper. I'm not usually very creative/crafty but my husband is and I thought he'd love it. It turns out that we both did!! We chose to do decoupage, which neither of us had done before, and we were really happy with our creations. We were guided through the process but left happily to it unless we had any questions. It was a fantastic way to spend our Saturday evening and something really different to do together. We'll definitely be back, hopefully before our next wedding anniversary!
HayleyIt was really fun and chilled! Probably best to go with a friend if you want to chat as it wasn’t that sociable but it was good to be able to switch off.
ChloëLovely way to spend an evening! The classes are quite small, only about 8 of us so that was really good. I would definitely advise to come prepared with a pattern you want to replicate - although the class is 2 hours the time runs out very quickly and I only had time to do 1 cushion cover rather than 2 which was a shame.
MadeleineIt was a great workshop! The teacher was really good and the organiser was very accommodating. Overall a fun session!
HelenSam and Diana have created an amazing venue for classes. Everywhere you look there are drawers and pots of materials. The session was a small group and we had plenty of space to work (unlike in other workshops I’ve been to). Amy (the host) explained all the steps really well and encouraged our creativity. Everybody left with cushions that looked professional
EleanorI was really impressed wth the Lino workshop. It was super in explaining the technical process and I’m really happy with the outcome! I would definitely recommend it!
KaylaI was really impressed wth the Lino workshop. It was super in explaining the technical process and I’m really happy with the outcome! I would definitely recommend it!
KaylaI had just the best time at M.Y.O on their lino printing course! Sam and Diana were extremely welcoming and kept the tea coming (the mark of a great host), and Amy was a great teacher. Together they made sure the class was accessible to all levels and really fun, before we knew it we were printing our own tea towels and cushions (all included in the price). The space itself is gorgeous, a riot of colour and full of inspiration, icluding the reference books in the library space downstairs. We are lucky to have this space in such a good location - I will definitely be back for another class!
GemmaIt was great to discover a new venue and new class. The class was a great size to try something new, supportive instructor, who was able to guide us through the class.
LeighSam and Diane were amazing hosts, so sweet, helpful, and accommodating! Reasonable pricing, as well. Would definitely go back to MYO for other activities!
SabrinaThis is my happy place. Another lovely evening escaping from the world into the friendliest craft heaven. Painted a new vase. Genuinely lovely experience as ever.
LetticeGreat atmosphere, we had a lot of fun. Would come back. :)
VytautasI've only been to the first of the three session sand so far so good. The process is quite therapeutic and Diana is very sweet and helpful. She has a warm and friendly energy that puts everyone at ease. The studio itself is cosy and nice and lots of chatting and laughing going on.
Sarahwhat an amazing place, everything a crafter would need. staff were not phased at all by two mobility scooters rolling in and did everything they could to make us welcome and included fully in the experience. They were there when we needed help but doing their own thing in the background when we ok creating ourselves. as a non walker this was perfect as i was able to create an item that i truly made myself and everyone commented how good it was. the relaxing music and friendly staff really made it a day to remember. i will definitely be recommending this place and returning myself i am sure.
amandaWe had an awesome day. My 2 friends and I made 3 completely different things to suit our tastes and skills. We had a great balance of guidance and freedom to be creative. We'll definitely be back for more!
LauraI had a fantastic time - the resources and atmosphere were brilliant, and Diana and Sam are very welcoming and helpful. Can't wait to book my next session!
RachelI loved spending my evenings at M.Y.O over this 3 part course. It was great to learn a new skill and I am really happy with my finished pieces. They were also very helpful when I wasn't able to make a session due to work commitments. Thanks Diana and Sam!
RebeccaI spent a wonderful morning at MYO making a Christmas wreath. The atmoshphere was relaxed, with all the materials and help I needed to produce my wreath. I was so pleased with the result, I couldn't believe that I had made it! Lovely venue and real coffee. Wouldn't hesitate to go again.
PatI love MYO place so much. I wish I lived there! It's a lovely friendly craft space with everything needed to make, paint and craft. Sam and Diane are ever so welcoming and have created a lovely place to play. On both occasions I visited, I painted ceramics, and with their help and advice ended up with some lovely pieces to take home.
LetticeGreat thing to do with friends to unwind and get a bit creative! Sam and Diana are very welcoming and helpful. Love my pinch pots :)
ClemencyDiane and Sam were really welcoming and had lots of different options and different things to do!
VictoriaHad a lovely prosecco & pottery session with the fantastic Sarah! Was such a relaxing environment and really connected with my creative side which I thought I’d lost !
