What a magic day I had yesterday at CraftRange in Burnley! On Monday, (thanks to my lovely kind, helpful, friend Jayne, making a call to the shop) I was so lucky to get a place on Suze Weinberg's meltpot workshop. I sneaked in to surprise my good friend Caz who didn't know I'd be there.
We were welcomed at this fab craft store with tea and fresh toast and all day the staff were so attentive, friendly and helpful. Congratulations to Debbie and Janet and her team for such a wonderful level of customer service.
Besides being a superb crafting opportunity we had the pick of their cafe menu for lunch and and the pick of any of their amazing homemade cakes for afterwards. We were so stuffed after the lovely main course that we saved the cakes for afternoon tea! All day long we were joking with a male member of staff about his ardent service getting us clean cups and helping generally that we were calling him "chef" and pulling his leg, only to discover at the end of the day that it was "El Primo", the Boss, the OWNER of the
store, Michael Toms!!!

Wasn't it just a fab day? I loved every minute - shame it flew by so quickly.
Looks and sounds as if you had great fun and made some great bits!! Still having collywobbles when I hear the words 'Wax collage' though, lol.
What a fabulous time you must have had! All the great craft shops seem to be up north!! We certainly don't have any in Devon that I know of that would be having the likes of Suze any day soon!!!! LOL
