    Hele fijne dag in het inspirerende maakatelier ! Dirk is de perfecte gepassioneerde persoon om je in je eerste houtcreatie opdracht te begeleiden. Een dag waarop de je hoofd helemaal leeg kan maken en enkel hoeft te focussen op je eigen ontwerp. Zeker een aanrader!

    Ik heb een superleuke en leerrijke dag achter de rug. Dirk en zijn sidekick hielpen ons met alles. Ik ging naar huis met een zelfgemaakte tuinbank: dat had ik nooit durven dromen!
