Testimonials
I had a really lovely time with Joy during our workshop. From the start, it was a really relaxed and creative space to work in. We started by going through the plan for the day, there were all the things I could possibly need for the day, ready for me, it was a treasure trove of things to look at and touch and use. During the day, it was all at my pace, allowing me to just relax into the project, and I had great fun just playing, creating and exploring, I got completely lost in it. Joy gave me the perfect level of help and guidance when needed, while allowing me follow my own ideas and creativity. Joy was also great at making sure I was hydrated and had some of her amazing bakes! - Michaela
