My first introduction to Rachel was when my sons bought me a mosaic kit for my birthday. It came through the post, delightfully packed in a through-the -letter-box size and I had such fun following the detailed instructions to completion. Everything I needed was included so the whole experience was sheer pleasure. Rachel is so encouraging, with such lovely designs, you are hooked immediately. She really does inspire creativity.

I’ve been on so many of Rachel’s workshops both at her studio and during the last year via zoom. Rachel is a great teacher and the name “Inspiring Creativity” says it all. Kits are also available and they are great quality with all the elements included in the kit to make the finished piece. I originally tried a workshop just to see what it was all about and three years later I’m totally hooked and doing more than ever. Thank you Rachel for inspiring my creativity and also giving me the chance to meet such lovely like-minded people in your workshops.

I have attended several face to face workshops with Rachel over the last two and a half years and each one has been superb. Rachel offers a wide range of classes to meet the varying skill range of her customers. More recently Rachel has expanded her workshops into the online/Zoom world and having attended/completed two of these online events, I've been really impressed with how Rachel has made these so successful. I am also a big fan of the kits that Rachel sells, the instructions are very easy to follow and it's great to have the flexibility of completing these in my own time. If you haven't tried mosaic (or even if you have!) I highly recommend Rachel's classes and tutelage.

I have attended three of Rachel’s face to face workshops, and two of her online workshops in the past year. I have thoroughly enjoyed them. I would never have described myself as creative, but my creativity has certainly been inspired by Rachel’s teaching. From small pieces done in face to face workshops, like the beach hut and Christmas baubles, to larger pieces like the paving slab, and home projects delivered online like the ‘stay home 2020 house’ and the patches for ‘Ulysses the Unicorn’, Rachel’s workshops are fantastic. You get what you pay for, and the materials, tuition (and snacks 😆) are simply excellent, and Rachel is so friendly and welcoming you will enter as a participant and leave feeling like you’ve known her for years. You will not regret booking on to one of Rachel’s workshops, though in my experience once you’ve done one, you will want to do more and more. Prepare to surprise yourself!

Rachel's mosaic stepping stones workshops are great, I enjoyed my first in August 2020 so much that I did another in September! My designs were ambitious for the time available but Rachel sent me home with all the supplies I needed to be able to complete them at home. Her studio is a lovely large, bright and airy space allowing plenty of room for social distancing with tea and coffee a plenty!
