Susan reviewed: Sea Glass Jewellery Making Course - One day course (Reading)

"Great fun way to spend an afternoon making jewellery. My sister and I made several lovely pieces, which we were surprised at, as we thought it would be a lot harder than it is. After the tutor demonstrated how to drill the sea glass, we then had ago ourselves and were amazed when shown how to assemble the pieces into lovely wearable pieces of jewellery."

La Jade responded:

"Thank you for your review, I’m glad you both enjoyed the course "

Julia reviewed: Sea Glass Jewellery Making Course - One day course (Reading)

"My friend purchased this course for my birthday. I have collected sea glass for years and always wanted to turn it into jewellery. Having attended the course and made some nice pieces of jewellery, I now feel confident I will be able to continue making jewellery at home, albeit once I’ve ordered the drill. Thank you for a fun afternoon."

La Jade responded:

"Thank you for your review Julia, I’m happy to hear you like the course. Good luck with your jewellery making."

Simone reviewed: Sea Glass Jewellery Making Course - One day course (Reading)

"Basically just shown how to drill a hole in a piece of sea glass and then attach it to the most cheapest piece of chain and accessories. Definitely not worth the money!"

La Jade responded:

"I’m unsure why you would leave such a review as you said you both really enjoyed the course on the day! Also the course was a month ago and only now have left a review, this really does not make any sense…. Moreover, the findings and chain are all quality silver plaited."

Andy reviewed: Silversmithing Jewellery Making Course: Level 1 - Mornings (Merseyside)

"I've only done one day on this course with Carol. It was absolutely brilliant and I really can't wait for next Friday for day 2. I thought I would be able to learn silversmithing on my own, being very practical and hands on, but having done just one day I realized the importance of attending this course. Carol is so friendly and really knows her stuff. I can't wait to see how much I'll know by the end of level 3 and what I'll be able to make. I'm so excited."

La Jade responded:

"Hi Andy, thank you for your lovely review. I look forward to teaching you with your enthusiasm and eagerness to learn 8m. Sure it will be very enjoyable for both of us 🤗"

"Everything was well planned and prepared before we arrived. Carol gave a really clear demonstration and we were able to make lots of amazing jewellery.

Anne White reviewed: Sea Glass Jewellery Making Course - One day course (Reading)

"Carol is very pleasant and she worked very hard for more than the three hours allocated. I feel the numbers were a bit too many for her to be able to give each one all the help they may have needed to create a very good piece. Perhaps the cost should reflect the attention possible. "

AnnProbert reviewed: Sea Glass Jewellery Making Course - One day course (Reading)

"I think it might be advisable to speak to Carol. She knows that things did not go well and I came home with an embarrassingly awful pendant which Carol had tried to make when she messed up the one I was working on. She was trying to help, but I feel that she was overwhelmed with so many students needing her assistance, especially with soldering, which needs some experience. Perhaps a smaller class would work better. I suggest that, in my case, Carol might consider a refund of my joining fee. Sorry to be so negative, but I have to tell it as I experienced it,"

Mary reviewed: Silversmithing Taster Day - (Reading)

"My Granddaughter and I thoroughly enjoyed this small group introduction to silversmithing and were very pleased with our rings. Carol explained everything well and was on hand to help but gave us some freedom to try things and make mistakes too. A very good learning opportunity. "

La Jade responded:

"Thank you for your review Mary. I am glad you and your grand daughter enjoyed the session and like the rings you made. It was a pleasure meeting you both."
