It was very fun and the staff very nice. I’m absolutely not talented artistically but the lamp turned out very pretty! (had a bit of a mental breakdown due to lacking patience tho so bear that in mind) The only thing that they could improve on is the unlimited drinks. There were too many people so we’ve only had a tea and a coffee but I think it’s still worth the price.
