Enjoyed our day at Cribden Crafts. Had a go at rag rugging and made a wall hanging to decorate our shepherds hut. I carn't wait to come back and have a go at some silver jewellery making

Cribden Crafts. What a gem.

My daughters bought me a voucher for my birthday and I used it to go on the Christmas candle workshop. Loved it. It was really enjoyable, learning about different waxes, fragrances, setting/ curing times and ratios of wax to fragrance. Lovely containers to fill after guidance all the way through the process. Great company in a lovely, peaceful surrounding in the beautiful Rossendale Valley.Looking to do some more workshops soon. Thank you so much
