Great class. A fun project to create with a great final product that I'll definitly use.

Becky Blink • Oct 2023

This workshop was AWESOME I would love to do this one again with a different lamp pattern. It was soooooo relaxing and Nur shared so many interesting things about his Turkish culture. I liked this workshop so much that I went online and purchased some DIY Turkish Lamp Kits for my family to do over the holidays. Absolutely loved it (Could have used a few more beads in my kit though).

Diana Barnes • Oct 2023

Really enjoyed the class and LOVE my Turkish lamp. Nurullah was a great instructor and made the entire experience fun and enjoyable. His instructions were easy to follow and the way he incorporated lots of quiet work time helped make the entire activity relaxing. The addition of Turkish music and some sharing of Turkish culture really rounded out the class. I would not consider myself very artsy, but was easily able to complete this project successfully. Thanks for such a fun experience!

Nicole Nazari • Oct 2023

Nur hosted 2 amazing classes for my very large Google global team and was incredible to work with! He was always very responsive, accommodating, kind, and knowledgable. I will definitely work with him again in the future. Thank you, Nur, for helping us create such beautiful memories and lamps!

We never received the kit and could not take the class. This is not the teacher's fault.

Hiromi Suenaga • Dec 2022

It was a fun class and the lamp turned out great! What a fun way to spend Friday evening with friends far away.

Jung Kim • Dec 2022

Nur and Chiara were fantastic instructors and hosts for our corporate event! We had about 50 people (~30 in person, rest were geographically spread) and everyone on our team had a blast!

Nur shipped Turkish Delights / Turkish Chocolate to our non-local teams and brought us fresh Baklava, Turkish Delight, and some other Turkish treats while teaching us about the history of Turkish coffee. It was a super unique experience before leading into the Lamp Mosaic class.

100% would recommend and I've even got a few team members asking for a potential second round given they missed it! :)

Yunus Yildiz • Nov 2022

This is a must do hand-craft experience. It was perfect from beginning to end. The kit that you will receive is organized very well. If you want some good quality workshop, you should not miss this one. Thanks Nurullah.

Paula Herrera • Oct 2022

This experience and class was fantastic. The instructor was so caring and thoughtful about how he lead the class. He was knowledgable, interested in making sure everyone felt comfortable and was having a good time, and was easy to follow. I very much loved the class and the lamp I will now proudly display in my home.

Deepika • Sep 2022

The class was quite therapeutic and fun. The lamp turned out to be very beautiful. Nurullah was quite patient with answering all questions and made the session quite fun with the amazing Turkish music he played in the background.

What a great experience I always wanted to have a Turkish mosaic lamp. I saw them when I went to Istanbul but did not have a chance to bring one. However, I booked this workshop and not only buy one and also I learned how to make it. I like swan model more than table one. They have same glass globe but I like swan model. This is a great way of learning detail of this art. If you are curious, don't miss this workshop and book it without hesitating.

This class was so relaxing and rewarding. The host, Nurullah, was kind, charming and informative. He played traditional Turkish music for us while we worked and explained the instruments and history. The lamps we made came out beautiful and it was wonderful to spend time with coworkers doing something non-work related.

Sarah • Sep 2022

Nurullah's class was wonderful and relaxing! The traditional music, tea, and Turkish delights provided were a nice touch. I appreciated how personable and patient Nurullah was. He took time to get to know us and check on all of our progress. Would definitely recommend this class! My lamp looks beautiful at night. :)

Nurullah is a very patient, detail oriented teacher. I loved learning about the origins of Art String and Mosaic Lamps. Both classes are a lot of fun to do! He's also very friendly, and makes sure you experience a truly complete Turkish experience with treats, music and culture.
I was offered a very generous discount for my second class, which made me be fully immersed in the activity and stay present to enjoy it. Would definitely take another class soon!

That was the most unique online experience that I have ever joined. Product at the end is stunning. I have enjoyed a lot during this workshop. Nurullah such an amazing instructor. He knows all the detail of the mosaic lamp making. At first, I thought it might be little bit challenging. However, it is super easy and amazing satisfying. I highly recommend to everyone if you like handcrafting workshop. Don’t miss it and book it as soon as possible. Thanks Nurullah.
