Ozzi Sanderson reviewed: Absolute Beginners Ring Wax Carving Workshop

"Why buy a ring when you can make one with your own hands? A hand-carved ring that brings more sentiment and excitement. This course with Emily was an absolute joy! I originally planned this course for just my girlfriend, but quickly decided I wanted to make one for myself too. Oh, and boy am I happy! We were also very impressed with how the ring turned out. Emily showed us the tips of the trade, and we had a lot of fun creating our individual designs. We were both so excited to get them back after being sent off to the kiln. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone looking for a fantastic present, gift or just the opportunity to make some fabulous jewellery!"

The Metalsmith responded:

"I'm so glad that you enjoyed the experience; thank you so much for the lovely compliments!"

"I had done one course of wax carving prior to doing this course. I really enjoyed it and would certainly consider booking another session. It would be suitable for total beginners or someone with a little bit of experience like me. Would definitely do some research before you go as it’s better to go with a fairly clear idea of what you might like to make. Emily is really nice, makes you feel very welcome, seems very knowledgeable and is super approachable. Would certainly recommend and would very likely go again myself. Very fair value for money too, similar costing in comparison to other courses I’ve done."

The Metalsmith responded:

"Very happy to hear that you had a good time. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and for all your kind words! Let me know if there's any more I can do! Emily"

Yotty reviewed: Absolute Beginners Ring Wax Carving Workshop

"I went in with a desire to make a ring as a Christmas present for my mother and was overwhelmed, in the best way possible, by how much I learned and how much I enjoyed myself. Emily Smith is a fantastic teacher and helped me shape my ring into an even better design than I had imagined. I had no prior experience in regards to jewellery before but that proved to be no problem at all as it was easy to learn and found myself enjoying every aspect of the ring making process, and was given total freedom to create with expert and educational supervision. I will be recommending this experience to anyone with an interest in jewellery, or who wish for an enjoyable and educational experience with beautiful results!"

The Metalsmith responded:

"Such a lovely review, thank you very much! It was my pleasure; I hope your mum loves her gift!"
