Charlotte reviewed: Mokume Gane: polymer clay jewellery making

"I attended this course with my mum after receiving a voucher for my birthday. We had a wonderful day and were amazed by what we were able to produce. Jo was so welcoming and patient; her enthusiasm was infectious and she was incredibly generous with her knowledge. Mum and I were both very proud of what we made, and our jewellery has been admired by both friends and family. We intend to return for another course in the future and would recommend this course to anyone looking to try something new. "

Kara reviewed: Silver Clay Jewellery for Beginners

"Jo is an absolutely fantastic teacher. She has a background in education and you can really tell. My partner and I booked on to the course and our expectations were met and then greatly exceeded. Everything you could have wanted in a course and in a teacher. Jo is knowledgeable, patient, friendly and supportive. We learnt about the material, how to work with it and designed our pieces from scratch. We then sculpted our designs out of silver clay following Jo’s guidance. Finally we got to fire and polish our pieces. We now have two amazing hand made pieces of jewellery each and we couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend booking a course with Jo. "

Julie Edge reviewed: Silver Clay Jewellery for Beginners

"I thoroughly enjoyed this course and was delighted with the two pendants I produced. The studio was a peaceful space to work in and easy to find with brilliant directions. Jo was a knowledgeable and patient tutor and the small group of two allowed so much individual attention. My many questions were answered in a way that was easy to understand. I now have the confidence to try silver metal clay work on my own. I highly recommend this course."

Jo Hunter Wearable Art responded:

"Thank you so much for the feedback, Julie. I'm glad you enjoyed your day. Please email any questions you have, once you get going at home! Thanks again, Jo."
