Testimonials
Basic Necklace & Bracelet
  • "Now THAT was really really fun! Thank you for that class and the time to learn how to make professional looking jewelry."
  • "The instructor was excellent."
  • "I can't believe I made this!"
  • "I appreciated having the time to bead without distractions!"
  • "I actually finished something for a change!
Basic Earring & Wire
  • "Thank you so much for your inspiring class. I honestly didn't think that I'd have the skills or patience to produce much of anything, so when I went home with three pairs of VERY CUTE earrings, I was thrilled! More importantly though, I left your workshop without all of the stress of the day that I had originally brought in and with a new skill. I've enjoyed showing all of my craft-y friends my new earrings, and look forward to joining you again for the next class."
  • "It was easier than I thought it would be! I loved the creativity of it."
  • "The instructor did a great job of providing tips and going through the steps at a comfortable pace."
  • "I really liked the small class size. I received lots of individual attention & assistance."
  • "I appreciated the clear communication I had with the instructor, and her samples were GREAT! I'm inspired to do future projects.
Wire Work Necklace
  • "I now feel confident to do the techniques on my own. I am very proud of my self-proficiency from just one class."
  • "I appreciated the instructor's patience and the one-on-one attention."
KISS Soldered Bangle
  • "The instructor took the time to explain the steps carefully & gave details about how soldering works."
  • "What I liked best about the class was learning a new jewelry-making skill."
  • "The instructor had great enthusiasm and knowledge."
Introduction to PMC
  • "The instructor rocks!"
  • "The steps were explained at a 'doable' pace."
  • "It was easy to get my questions answered, but the best part was actually trying the steps, not just watching a demonstration."
