  My girlfriend and I had a great time! The instructor was very nice and helped us make some beautiful rings. This was a very fun course and I would definitely do it again. Would highly recommend!

  Ayaka was a pleasure! The class was fun and unique, and I got it as a surprise for my fiancé, who said it was much more enjoyable than a cooking class (which I later revealed that I considered getting instead). We were the only two doing the one-day jewelry class, but other attendees were in advanced workshops at the school. So it was also really cool to see what they were making and to aspire to more advanced studies if we wanted to sign up for more classes. I thought the ring we made was super cute!

  This class was a lot of fun! It’s a small group setting so it’s easy to ask questions and have the teacher review your ring every step of the way! I went solo but a couple was also in the group and made rings for each other (so cute). The class does take the full three hours which honestly flew by. You get to select silver or brass, the texture of your ring, what message you want stamped on the inside, and the color diamond. I’ll definitely be going back for other classes!

  The teacher was nice and patient. She provided all the equipment we needed. There was enough time to work on the ring without any pressure. The downside was that we all made the same ring (there were 3 options that were pretty similar to each other). I didn't like the design she offered us to choose from so in the end, I made a ring that I didn't like from the beginning. I believe the reason was that it was our first experience so she chose an easier technique.

  The teacher was very kind, she paid attention to everyone. We all made the same ring and I prefer to make a ring that looks quite different from the one we made, but there were no other options (other than the width of the ring)

  This class was awesome! You can make your own customized diamond ring (metal - brass or silver), you can choose diamond color, and ring size / width / texture. Ayaka was really knowledgeable and sweet. The small touches to this whole experience made it even better - there were long-term students making their own jewelry to the side and it was nice to kind of see their work. Ayaka provided green tea, snacks, and slippers. Felt really welcoming and comfortable. I only wish we were able to solder and form the ring ourselves, but perhaps that is too hard for a beginner so some steps Ayaka did for us. Would take more courses if I could!

  My friend and I took it together and it was a ton of fun! We love our rings! The instructor and her assistant did all the soddering (with a blow torch) which I didn't mind so much considering I have no idea what I'm doing. The instructor is super talented and you can view and purchase her amazing pieces towards the front of the studio.

  I am very disappointed in this class. While the description said premium materials could be purchased, I was only given the options of silver and brass. 4 other students from other courses were there and we were all competing for the instructors attention. I sat, waiting for what to do next for most of the class, and ended up being pretty much self directed or on my phone. The instructor does the welding and diamond setting for you - all you do is saw a metal sheet, stamp your initials and polish the ring. I am so disappointed I spent so much money to have a disappointing experience and a ring that turns my finger green. The teacher is very nice but she didn’t actually teach me anything.

  This class was fantastic! I’m typing this review while wearing my lovely new ring. There are several ways you can customize the ring you make. You choose what metal you’ll be working with, how thick the band is, what you want to stamp inside as well as the font, the finish of the metal (smooth or textured), and the color of the diamond. Everything was explained well and the teacher and her assistant were super helpful and also were able to answer all questions I had during class. I would HIGHLY recommend this class!!

  I enjoyed the class and the studio a lot, Ayaka was very patient. I’ve taken another ring making class in the city and this one is cool because you learn how to do a tube setting. Only downside was I was the only person there for the 1 day class and there were a bunch of students there for the course so at times I’d have to wait around or ask for instruction on what to do next which was awkward. Other than that I loved it!
