Testimonials:
“Wonderfully therapeutic. Raphael is a fantastic and patient teacher. I created pieces which were of master quality. Want to do another course.” Jane
“More than I imagined. More possibilities…more flexibility…more components. It gave me a real insight into how I can take my designs one step further and taught me to be thrifty using scraps of chain, broken beads plus found objects.” Jodie
“This is just the beginning. Raphael thanks for an amazing 2 day creative adventure.” Chrissy
"I had fun and enjoyed learning new techniques. Of course, it is always good to walk away with 2 new pairs of earrings to show off. The master class was definitely value for money. I am more than satisfied - it was a good balance of project and my abilities - and looking forward to future workshops. I am excited to try some projects at home too!" Toni 2012
