Review September 2023 - Kate Frary-Staff

I visited Sarah for a 2 day intensive course learning how to make fingerprint jewellery, mini hand and foot prints, paw prints and art work transferred onto silver charms. Sarah was so kind, patient and a wonderful teacher. She made me feel at ease and very welcome in her home. Nothing was too
Much trouble and she was happy to go over things that I didn’t understand or recap if I felt unsure of anything. Her work that she produces is of a very high standard and I am so pleased that I chose Sarah to train me to make jewellery. She is also there to support me after my training on anything that I am
Unsure of and I can contact her whenever I need to. I feel I have made a new friend in Sarah and would absolutely recommend her to anyone thinking of doing any training with her- or buying her amazing jewellery! Thank you Sarah. Xx
