5.00We had an amazing time making our own hearts. Went with a friend and our two 11-year-old kids and we all loved it. Such a unique and fun experience. Jen is a fantastic instructor. She guided the class beautifully and made sure we each had a special souvenir to take home. Would highly recommend!!

5.00I use a wheelchair, so things like this can be a little bit intimidating but Jen was so accommodating and patient! I would absolutely do another class with her, what a fun day. 10/10
Great fun for the whole family, at a good price!

5.00We visited with our three teenagers, and all five of us had a great time! Jen is a great instructor, a master at keeping the whole class engaged and progressing on their projects while also ensuring everyone's safety. She took the time to demonstrate each step of each of our projects as we went along, and then helped us to do the work ourselves. It was a great way to spend a couple of hours, well worth the cost, and we each got to bring home something we'd forged ourselves!
A gifted teacher, a talented artist, and a fun workshop

5.00Jen is a highly gifted teacher, who excels at illustrating techniques while simultaneously working a sample of each student's project, and guiding the student in doing their own work. This was a *lot* of fun.
