TESTIMONIALS

Terrific Tutor-highly recommended.

We were given clear instruction, guidance and the time to create beautiful rings.

Kate gave us the confidence to achieve the results we did.

I have rebooked onto another workshop which I am gifting my friend and am looking forward to spending time creating with Kate again soon.

Hi Kate!I just wanted to thank you again for yesterday, i really enjoyed it and can’t believe that I actually made something that looks so good. You might find me turning up to future workshops!

Loved the workshop on Saturday. I was so nervous before but so happy I pushed myself to come. Liz and I have already booked on for the pendant workshop.

Just wanted to say thank you for a brilliant day yesterday, I think once we all got over our fear we had a fabulous time & came away with a lovely piece of unique jewellery.

Thank you for your patience with us, I'll definitely be recommending your workshops to other friends,

Thanks again,

Jane

I recently had the pleasure of attending one of Kates ring making workshops and absolutely loved the whole experience.

It was informative, creative, very hands on, yet super relaxed. The perfect combination.

I have no previous knowledge or experience of jewellery making and Kate walked me through everything, step by step in a knowledgeable, yet empathic way, patient with me as a total beginner!
And it was so much fun too, bonus!!

I really enjoyed every part of it and am still amazed that I got to design and create something that I can wear, treasure and eventually hand on to my daughter.

Looking forward to future workshops
