Silver Cloisonné workshop

Penny Stevens reviewed: Silver Cloisonné workshop

"I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in enamelling. I had a great day of learning with Teresa. I do a lot of glass fusing but wanted to learn more about enamelling on copper and silver as an extension to my skills and to make good use of my kilns. I was not disappointed! Teresa knew just how to pitch the course for me and was very knowledgeable in helping to answer all my questions, and I had a few!!! I practiced a number of skills and have many more to practice at home now I know the basics in this art. Thank you so much Teresa for your patience and kindness in sharing your expertise with me. I will probably be back."

"Really lovely morning enamelling with Teresa in her lovely garden studio. Teresa shared lots of her skills with us and also encouraged us to explore our own creative ideas. Lots of nice coffee too. Will definitely be back!"

Alyssa reviewed: Make a pair of Enamel Earrings

"I had the most wonderful time. I had a nightmare with traffic and Teresa could not have been more accommodating, friendly and helpful. I made some beautiful pieces with her experienced support and am now in the process of purchasing a kiln for enamelling and similar other work as I love it so much ? Don't hesitate, just book, you'll love it"

"Thank you Alyssa for your review, and I’m so glad that you’re joining the world of enamelling!!"

Hazel reviewed: Enamel Bowls Workshop

"I would highly recommend this workshop. My husband and I both really enjoyed ourselves. I had no idea what to expect, but Teresa is an excellent teacher and we had such a fun and gently paced morning. No real artistic skill is needed to produce something that looks beautiful and unique. The process was much simpler than I had thought - anyone could do this. The exact outcome is somewhat down to luck, but Teresa guided us through our options and had lots of examples to show us which helped with decisions on colours and pattern. We each ended up with a gorgeous bowl that we are completely delighted with."

Lappelli Craft Studio responded:

"Hazel, thank you for your review.I’m so pleased that you enjoyed your morning and the gorgeous bowls you made ?"

"Brilliant that a complete amateur can, in just an hour or two, produce something attractive and eye-catching that I’ll be happy to show to friends. Teresa is great with novices, very helpful and encouraging. I can see myself doing more of her workshops."

Lappelli Craft Studio responded:

"Isabel, thank you for your review. Your little pendants were very sweet and will surely get many compliments!"

"Had a great session with Teresa today. I learnt a huge amount and came away with two nice pieces of enamelled copper that I’m really happy with, and I made them all myself, with advice from Teresa of course. Her workshop is spacious and well equipped, and there loads to choose from in materials. It seems the only limit is your imagination. I shall return in future."

Lappelli Craft Studio responded:

"It was lovely to meet you today and help you start your enamel journey"

"My mum and I did a "Have a Go" enamelling workshop this afternoon. It was an excellent course and Teresa was an excellent and very knowledgeable tutor. In just a couple of hours we had both created lovely pieces of jewellery and had learnt some basic techniques of enamelling. I would thoroughly recommend Teresa's courses. Can't wait to go back and do some more!"

"I had a fabulous day at Lappelli Craft Studio. The knowledge Teresa has regarding enamelling is impeccable! I would not hesitate in recommending booking a course with her! Most enjoyable, be careful though...it’s very addictive???"

"Teresa does fantastic workshops to learn crafts, particularly warm glass and enamelling. I did a full day workshop to learn to make enamel bowls, and it was probably the best crafting day I've done. We first made some small plaques, firing the powdered enamel in layers onto a copper blank, so I could learn to use stencils and different types of materials, including stringers, flakes and millefiore. Then I learnt to make my bowl, building up the layers on a copper blank until it was a glorious shiny peacock texture with blues and greens and golds shining through. I'd completely recommend checking out the workshops on offer, as Teresa was a great teacher, the quality of the work produced looked way more professional than I expected, and I came away really enthused about enamelling. She also made soup for lunch, carefully catering to everyone's needs, along with plenty of refills of tea. With the materials included, that made it amazing value for money, because I came away with three items and a new set of skills, having had a very enjoyable day."

"I had an enamelling project in mind and although I was a complete beginner Teresa explained what we had to do and helped me with each stage from preparing the copper pieces through to the enamelling process. Excellent help and tuition and am happy to recommend her to anyone wanting to learn or have a go at the enamelling process."

"I arranged this experience with my 2 sisters, one is very crafty and creative and the other has never crafted before. Teresa was a fantastic teacher, very encouraging and knowledgeable. We spent a lovely morning at the studio, the choice of items to make was brilliant and as a result we made 3 completely unique items. I will definitely be returning to learn more skills, I would highly recommend, thank you Teresa."
