Sarah Bradley Designs reviews

Christa reviewed: Sterling Silver Sea Glass Ring Workshop

"Myself and a friend had a great day with Sarah. She explained each step very well and was very patient with us both (being the perfectionists we are, everything took quite long before we were happy with it!) and didn't mind that we finished quite a bit later than anticipated. I guess the many cups of tea and biscuits and the fun chat also contributed to that! We both went away with a beautiful seaglass ring and a renewed respect for jewellers! We really enjoyed it and would certainly recommend doing this course with Sarah - we may come back for a different course some time!"

Sarah Bradley Designs responded:

"Hi Christa & Susanne, It was lovely to meet you both, what a fun day! You both made a lovely piece of jewellery with sea glass, it was total perfection, well done. Look forward to welcoming you back soon. Many thanks Sarah"

Lorna reviewed: Sterling Silver Sea Glass Ring Workshop

"This was jolly good fun and I left with a splendid sea glass ring (with a piece of sea glass I found on the beach in Looe, in Cornwall). Even when I discovered it was all going A Bit Wrong (my soldering skills leave a lot to be desired!) the tutor showed me what was going wrong and how to make it right and it was all fixed beautifully. Altogether a very fun and also educational day (I like to learn new skills, even if I'm not good with them, or if they won't be used much!)."

Sarah Bradley Designs responded:

"Hi Lorna, I'm so happy you enjoyed making your lovely piece of unique jewellery. Thank you for your lovely comments, and you did a fab job, well done. Thanks Sarah"

Callum reviewed: Silver Jewellery Ring making workshop

"Booked this for my partner and myself as a surprise treat for her. Sarah was very helpful throughout the booking process and responded to any questions quickly. We both had a lovely day in Sarah’s workshop where we learned lots, made a ring each and had tons of fun in the process. Sarah made sure we always had a drink and biscuits to hand and was a superb teacher! Would definitely recommend!!"

Gill reviewed: Silver jewellery Pendant making workshop

"I bought this course to share quality time with my mother for her birthday. Sarah looked after us very well in her Tardis of a workshop, giving us a real taster of the equipment, time and skill that goes into jewellery making. We had a thoroughly enjoyable day and each came home with a unique pendant to remind us of our day. It was amazing what we achieved in just four hours, credit to the teaching and guidance we received. Nice tea and biscuits too! "

Alys reviewed: Silver Jewellery Bangle making workshop

"My daughter and I had a lovely time making our jewellery at Sarah's workshop. We are complete beginners and Sarah made us feel very relaxed and welcome. There was plenty of time to think about our designs and then carry them out without feeling rushed. I think Sarah was skilful in striking the right balance between being helpful, informative, giving good guidance when we most needed it and also allowing us to be absorbed in what we were doing! We both thoroughly enjoyed the experience and we both love the items we came away with."

Toby Slack reviewed: Silver Jewellery Ring making workshop

"Wow. A really really amazing and unique experience made all the better by Sarah's in depth knowledge of jewellery making. We made the rings in a cute little workshop that has all the necessary tools required, Sarah constantly made sure we were full of hot drinks and biscuits and it was really fascinating hearing about her experience as a silver smith. Sarah also runs a photography business so she took lots of brilliant photos throughout and gave them to us a few days later free of charge! She even gave my girlfriend an extra silver pendant at the end to supplement her small ring. If you are considering making rings with your friend/partner then I couldn't recommend Sarah Bradley Designs enough!"

Sarah Bradley Designs responded:

"Hi Toby & Evie, Thank you so much for your glowing review. Was an absolute pleasure to teach you both. What an amazing job you both did with your rings too. You're welcome back anytime. Best wishes Sarah"

Becky Rankin reviewed: Silver Jewellery Ring making workshop

"Would highly recommend doing a workshop with Sarah. The minute we arrived we were welcomed with a beaming smile, making us feel relaxed. Sarah gave us freedom to create with our own style and allowed us to do the whole task independently, but with reassuring back up of Sarah’s knowledge at all times. My daughter and I had a wonderful experience and were really pleased with our final pieces. Thanks."

Sarah Bradley Designs responded:

"It was a pleasure to teach you both. Thank you for coming along for the workshop, and happy to welcome you back anytime. Thanks Sarah"

"What a fantastic day! Sarah was suberb with her instruction. Just the right amount of 'there to help' if needed without dominating in any way. We had a lovely day chatting away as we crafted our rings. Lunch was lovely too. And the end result . . . we are absolutely thrilled with our rings!!!"

john bracey reviewed: Wedding/Civil Partnership Ring making workshop - Sterling Silver

"It was great! Arrived with a few basic skills and left with a new confidence that I can design and make attractive jewellery. It's a really relaxed atmosphere, almost like chatting to a friend, working through some basic techniques and enhanced with good tips. Sarah is a good teacher, clear and patient, really felt like she wanted to help me progress (not just a job). Helped with guidance but always made sure that it was me doing the doing! Was really pleased (amazed) with the ring I made. Thanks again Sarah"

Jennie reviewed: Silver jewellery Pendant making workshop

"I have been wanting to do a silver jewellery making course for ages but haven't been able to due to my work commitment until now. Sarah Bradley was very accommodating and fitted me in very quickly. I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop and learnt so much! Sarah was great, she made me feel right at home and explained every step really clearly. I was so happy with my final piece, a lovely homemade silver ring with a beautiful opal. Thankyou Sarah!!"

"I had a really great time during the workshop! Sarah and Anneke were there to patiently help us making our own bangle and I was delighted with the result I got to take home with me. The pictures that were taken during the workshop were great as well. So nice to see yourself, fully concentrated on making a really nice piece of jewelry."

"We had a wonderful day with Sarah making our wedding rings. A cute little workshop in her garden. Sarah is very friendly, professional and super talented! We had so much fun making our rings and everyone made comment on how much of a personal and awesome thing to do. We also had Sarah capture our wedding day. Highly recommended, x"

"An excellent course and well run by Sarah. Four hours of her tuition and great company made this course good value. I learned a lot and I am so pleased with the silver pendant that I made. Give it a try!"

Laure reviewed: Silver jewellery Pendant making workshop

"I wanted to create something for my 35th birthday. I had a broken ring, and I loved the stone. Sarah was the perfect petson to help me out! I had an amazing time, learned so much, laughed, shared!!! Perfect birthday present! Her studio is a gem, feel good to step out of the real world for few hours. Now, I have a beautiful ring, a lot of compliment about it and I made it! Meeting Sarah was great, and I can't recommend her enough. She took some pictures of me during the day, which I didn't expect, and they are fabulous! Thank you, thank you thank you Sarah! Ps: I have just realised it is me on the picture below! Lol ;-)"

Becky Peek reviewed: Wedding/Civil Partnership Ring making workshop - Sterling Silver

"What a fantastic start to the build up to our wedding!! The individuality of the rings produced and their quality was more than we could of wished for. Sarah made us feel more like friends than clients and the whole experience was a joy from the satisfying feel of the hammer moulding the gold into a sign of our love, to the scrumptious lunch that was served as we rested from our mornings endeavours. Overall an experience I would say that is as priceless as the memories I remember every time I look at my ring."

Anneke Kloosterman reviewed: Silver jewellery Pendant making workshop

"I did the tree of life pendant workshop as well as the ring making workshop. I really enjoyed doing both workshops, the atmosphere was very friendly and Sarah teaches the skills of jewellery making in a fun, interesting and understandable way. She is patient and helped me through every step of the process. I was really pleased with the end result of both pieces, a lovely keepsake for the future! I will definitely doing more workshops in the future, and also as a gift to someone I think this is a great experience."

Joyce reviewed: Silver jewellery Pendant making workshop

"I have done 2 workshops with Sarah, one for the Tree of Life pendant en one to make a silver ring. They were both very enjoyable and I learned a lot whilst making it. I highly recommend the workshop for anyone who wants to make their own unique jewellery."
