Mandy K reviewed: All day jewellery workshop experience with Silv-r Designs

"This is the second course that I have been on with Ali. The help and guidance that you received is second to none. She talks you through every step, giving you different options, helping you decide which method/style works best for your piece. There is so much to learn in jewellery making and Ali showed me so much more than expected. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to design and produce something that is unique and individual to you. "

Silv-r Designs responded:

"Hello Mandy, it was lovely to welcome you back into the workshop. It was also my pleasure to help you design and made your pendant - creating a modern and striking silver setting for your own glass cabochon stone. You did incredibly well and the finished necklace was beautiful. Well done, you are a natural! Hope to see you back in the workshop soon. With best wishes, Ali "

Sam reviewed: Silver pendant making with Silv-r Designs

"This course was excellent. Ali was a fantastic instructor, very knowledgable and has a great way of explaining the steps you need to take. I knew my first design choice would be a tricky one but Ali was up for the task, helping to figure out the maths necessary (i'm so sorry) to make it a reality. Incredible experience, all of the stars/5."

Silv-r Designs responded:

"Hello Sam Thank you so much for your lovely review and for coming to the workshop. Your Celtic knot idea was a little challenging for your first time, but you pulled it off which some very impressive saw piercing skills and on-point marking out. What you created was really striking 🙂 Hope to see you back in the workshop again soon. Best wishes Ali "

Jas reviewed: Make a silver ring with Silv-r Designs

"Ali was a great teacher , talking us through every step of the process from the initial sizing and cutting of the metal all the way to the final polishing. As a complete beginnner her guidance was perfect and the rings came out great (its insane we cant even tell where we joined the rings together)! We did this as a couple and got to make each others rings for our anniversary so we had a physical item we can cherish forever! The tea was a welcome added bonus and she made sure we were nice and warm inside the workshop aswell. Would absolutely recommend!!!"

Silv-r Designs responded:

"Hello Jas Thank you so much for your wonderful review. It was a pleasure to spend the morning with you both and your rings were really lovely. For complete beginners you did incredibly well and it was a pleasure to support you to make such meaningful pieces for each other. With best wishes Ali"

Mandy reviewed: Make a triple ring with Silv-r Designs

"I’ve just completed the triple ring course with Ali. I am absolutely amazed at how well my ring turned out! I’ve learned so much on this day course. How to accurately work out the measurements, cutting, sanding, quenching, pickling, polishing and using different types of solder, tools and techniques. I was amazed at how much goes into the art of jewellery making. I don’t think I will look at it the same way again. I can’t wait to go on the next course."

Silv-r Designs responded:

"Hello Mandy - thank you so much for your lovely review. For your first time at making silver jewellery you did incredibly well and made a ring to be proud of 😊 It was a pleasure spending time with you and I look forward to welcoming you back in the workshop again soon. Best wishes, Ali"
