  • 'i met lizzie on a yoga retreat where she hosted a workshop. I was complete daunted, (d+ for art at school, tries and always fails, the word always being underlined), however, lizzie immediately allayed my fears and i crafted, with a little help, a lovely design, of which i'm really proud. thank you lizzie.'
