Fantastic and experienced teacher, and such a warm, welcoming studio!
I first came to Svetlana to create a single daffodil for St. David’s Day—and that was it, I was completely hooked. I just couldn’t stop! Only a couple of weeks later, we were already making beautiful felted sunflowers, and during a one-day workshop I even created a scarf with my friend’s name as a birthday gift. Svetlana is not only incredibly skilled, but also very patient and attentive—she explains everything clearly, supports you at every step, and makes the whole process feel easy and enjoyable, even if you’re a complete beginner. She creates such a friendly, relaxed atmosphere, and even treats you to tea or coffee, which makes the experience feel even more special. It’s truly a wonderful way to spend your time: creative, calming, and inspiring. And the best part is that you leave not only with great memories, but also with a beautiful handmade piece created with your own hands.

we made fairy houses
I went to a small class of 4 last week and we made fairy houses. It was certainly therapeutic and really good fun. I am missing seeing all you lovely people at the monthly classes and hope to catch up with you all soon. Xx

Nice Christmas present
Latest makes in wet felting. Thought I would post. Nice Christmas present for someone to have a class with Svetlana in Briton ferry in her studio. Or book a group session to make something of your choice. It's so therapeutic.

We'll definitely be back!
We went to a wet-felting lamp-making session Friday and absolutely loved it! It was the perfect mix of creativity and learning something new and we left with our own handmade lamps. Svetlana Lilley was brilliant: friendly, welcoming and a wonderful teacher who made the whole workshop feel relaxed and fun. The atmosphere she creates is so encouraging, even if you've never tried felting before. If you're looking for a unique craft session, a mindful creative break, or just something lovely to do with family or friends, I'd highly recommend booking a workshop here. We'll definitely be back!

I took a number of classes from Svetlana Lilley a year and a half ago. I learned so much that l am now addicted!! She gave me a great base. I now sell some work and do a little teaching. Thank you Svetlana Lilley

Svetlana is knowledgable, kind and generous
This is my second course with Svetlana and yet again it was brilliant. I bought this one as a Christmas present for my mother who, after a few hours learning, is now utterly obsessed with felting. Svetlana is knowledgable, kind and generous and always works hard to ensure you're taking away something to be proud of.
