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. "

Jo Hunter Wearable Art responded:

"Thank you so much, Kara! It was a pleasure to meet you both and I'm glad you enjoyed the workshop. 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."

Claire Stevens reviewed: Silver Clay Jewellery for Beginners

"Had a most enjoyable experience attending this workshop. Jo is a wonderful tutor. Her demonstrations were clear and easy to follow, and her creative enthusiasm is infectious! Delighted to come away from my day with three pendants and a desire to learn more about silver crafting. If you are considering signing up to one of her courses, I’d say do it! "

Jo Hunter Wearable Art responded:

"Thank you so much for the review (and the card!) Claire. I'm glad you enjoyed the day and I hope your gifts were appreciated by their lucky recipients. Jo"
