Attended: Flower Arranging with Store-Bought Bouquets

Class was half learning and half arranging. All materials were provided and you received individual assistance while designing your bouquet. Teacher was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful

Attended: SoapMaking Workshop

Great class! Simple, well explained information for melt and pour soap making. As a wheelchair user, the only problem was that the tables aren’t wheelchair friendly (very difficult to get close to the tables in a wheelchair, plus, if your wheelchair doesn’t raise like mine, the tables are too high to provide access to the table tops).
