"Emma was the absolute best! She made a very special night for a friend and I and turned what could have been ruined plans into a special experience as another place id booked messed up some things. Happens but I'm glad it did as Emma was just amazing. Great instructor, kind but direct in feedback. She made sure you walked away with a quality piece and experience"

"We had such a wonderful time casting our wedding rings with Emma and they turned out beautifully! It was such a unique and interesting experience. Emma's communication before and during the workshop was great and she helped us make our (fairly complex!) designs a reality."

"By far one of the coolest experiences I have ever done. Emma was amazing in helping me create my platinum wedding band. She was very professional, kind, and knowledgeable. She also had some delicious protein bars and peanuts on standby just in case :)"

"Could not recommend this experience enough! When my fiancé and I discovered we could make our own rings, we could not even imagine what a special process this would be. We wanted something classic but with a personal touch. Emma walked us through each step and helped us design and fabricate our rings. She convinced us to *melt* our fingerprints inside each other rings. Emma helped us not only create a beautiful symbol of our relationship, but gave us an experience we will cherish for a lifetime! Thank you so much!"

"I highly recommend jewelry making classes with Emma at her workshop studio: Mountain Metalworks. I spent a week learning how to make silver jewelry, her studio is very well-equipped and she is a very talented and professional jewelry artisan (designer and creator). She has many years of experience and is very enthusiastic about sharing her knowledge. The classes were fun and engaging, we worked on different things every day so I learnt a variety of skills. Emma genuinely wanted me to have the best experience possible and is very patient as she explains everything fully and keeps you safe at all times. I feel like I have come away with a lot of knowledge and new-found skills, and a new appreciation for the skills required to make jewelry! I was able to design my own pieces and Emma encouraged me to make them entirely myself, with her guidance. I left with some fantastic and unique jewelry pieces that I will wear and cherish. It’s a a fun way to spend a day, a couple of days ..or a week! There are several Jewelry benches so you can take classes together with friends. Thank you Emma for making my week with you so special … I will be back for sure!!"
