Masterful Makers

Victoria was a great teacher. Really warm and friendly, and incredibly patient. I came home with a one of a kind ring that I love. Would highly recommend this class.

Suzanne Buissink

Victoria was an amazing teacher who added her own twist to the whole process of making a ring. She let us share her passion and sent everyone home with a smile and amazingly some bling that deserved to be worn!

Keith Todd

Victoria is a very good teacher. She communicates well I learned quite a bit about making a basic ring and I participated in the making of the ring. For me it was a positive and rewarding experience. I also made an awesome birthday present for my partner

Lea Dawson

Friendly teacher, warm welcome. Bit hard to find.
Happy with what I made.will recommded

Jasmine Reid

The teacher was very lovely and patient, she offered a warm and comfortable environment. I am happy with how my mala turned out.

I gather she was not as well-prepared for this class, as I did not receive the workbook.
And just now after looking at other feedback with photos of their malas, it appears some extras others had on their malas were not available to me.
My session only went for 2 hours, perhaps because I was the only one in the class, but for quite an expensive class of $150 I didn't feel I quite got my money's worth.

This was just my experience.

William Tang

Victoria was an energetic and fantastic teacher for the ringmaking course. We were very happy with the result of our rings and how we were taught during the process of making them. It was very insightful and I would definitely recommend it to anyone!

Helen Brookes

The teacher is a real artist and it was very special to spend time with her in a learning situation to learn some of the basics of silversmithing a simple ring.

Suzanne Poulgrain

A fabulous afternoon with Victoria whom welcomed me and made me feel so comfortable in her home.

I came away with gorgeous smelling candles in which i was thrilled with.

I cannot wait to make some here in my own home. Victoria is a very dynamic and friendly teacher and so happy to answer any questions that u have.

Cannot wait to sign up for her other courses that she does.

Thankyou so much Victoria for a fabulous time. I learnt so much and who knows where i go from here.

I had a wonderful time making a ring from silver clay. Victoria was very generous with her time and made sure the result was perfect. Thank you for a great experience.

Caroline Birch

I really enjoyed my mala workshop with Victoria, Victoria had lots of knowledge and was very friendly and vibrant

Jackson Alsop

What an amazing class! My girlfriend and I had a great time. Very friendly teacher who made us feel right at home!

Venta Richter

Victoria has many creative talents which she fortunately shares with her students, her amazing designer Malas are on display for inspiration.

The class was small just the 3 of us which allowed for sufficient one on one tuition when needed.

For the Mala making class Victoria welcomed us with herbal teas and presented an excellent selection of colourful beads, threads, tassels and accent silver pieces.

We all left the class with our own unique personal completed Mala - which was fantastic and I now look forward to making more as gifts. I would definitely do the class again or Victoria’s advanced knotted beading class.

Lina Lee

Great atmosphere, friendly teacher (with the most adorable assistant) who had a lot of knowledge and patience. Had a wonderful time, thank you!

Tony Yip

Teacher is fantastic, very cool and nice lady.

She kind of teach a lot of skills and technique.

We had a small class today with 3. But she been really looking after everyone.

Fantastic workshop and I do really enjoy it. Would like to advance my skills and learn more about rain making.

Carolyn Birchill

My 12 year old son and I just loved Victoria’s class. We learnt so much in a day and to come away with a silver ring each that we crafted ourselves is fantastic. Every step of the way Victoria guided us while giving us the freedom to be creative, get familiar with all the tools and enjoy the day. Highly recommend for anyone. My son gave the day a 10 out of 10... and he is a hard critic!!

Victoria was the best crafts woman/designer ever!!! She was so patient, so energetic and so much fun to work with. We had a such great bonding time and even talked for a while after class. I have made the ring I wanted and would cherish it forever:) highly recommend her classes:) plus she also works with leather, beauty products, fragrances, candles and more!!

Charlotte

Victoria was lovely and helped me and the other student throughout to make sure our rings were perfect, while making us feel comfortable and at home. All materials were provided and we had lots of options to choose from. It was a lovely experience with something to take home and remind me of my time in Sydney. I would definitely recommend that you take part in one of Victoria's many workshops!

Edward Fair

Makeup Brush / Tool Holder & Make Up Bag Workshop

Victoria was an amazing teacher for my 11 year old boy, who came to her class for the day. She was patient, full of knowledge and made the experience a great one. Highly recommended her class for anyone who has a keen interest in jewelry making. We will absolutely be booking in another class again. Thank you Victoria!

Gillian Bailey

My daughter and I loved this class. Victoria was kind and friendly and a really great teacher.
The space was warm and welcoming and Victoria had a great choice of materials and all the tools required to finish our project. Can’t wait to go back.

Cailee Clark

The class was so fun and we learned so much! Class size was small so we’d had a lot of personal instruction. Instructor was knowledgeable, welcoming and fun! She gave us tea and played fun music and even used two different techniques to accommodate for the desires of the other two taking the workshop. We learned both a traditional silver shaping method as well as a metal clay method. Would recommend this class to anyone!

Monika Iwanow

Amazing experience! Beautiful, professional and funny teacher. I’m really happy with the outcome! Thanks

Seen Lee

Victoria was so lovely, encouraging and helpful. 2 hours class became 4.5 hour cus we’re too slow. Gonna come back for other classes next time! Victoria is very friendly and interesting, she has a lot of knowledge or many different topics. We went for our anniversary and would highly recommend this as a couple bonding activity

Angela Chang

A great afternoon spent with an excellent and passionate teacher. Would recommend this class all round.

Kim Stevens

Victoria and her assistant were fantastic with our boys (ages 9,11yrs) she had them completely engaged the whole time with detailed information and activities. They loved cracking the geode rocks and they loved making the silver necklaces and learning about different types of rocks and how they are formed. We hope to have Victoria back again.

Jewellery class

Victoria was very bubbly and keen to share her knowledge and made sure you left with a finished piece

Evan James

This class was so much fun! It was a really personal experience, and I learnt so much. Victoria is lovely, and she really took the time to make sure I came out with a piece of jewellery I will cherish forever. I definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to give this a go.

Ericka Paredes

I loved my class with Victoria. She patiently explained step by step the techniques to use throughout the process of making the coin purse!

Beau Ford

I spent a great day with Victoria making a stunning ring - she explained everything extremely thoroughly. We got on very well, she made me a delicious lunch and as the finishing touches to my piece were quite tricky, she personally delivered it to my hotel the next day. If are interested in jewellery/specifically ring making - this is a really lovely place to start your journey!

Donna McLeod

Loved this class. Victoria is so patient and generous with her time and knowledge and helped me make a stunning Mala

Kaliopy Arvanitakis

Kat Ting

I made a coin bag and earphone holder. Really enjoyed the class. Victoria is very friendly and funny. She gave us a lot of insights and useful tips to leather product making. Good selection of tools and leather to use for projects. She ensured that tools are used safely and gave plenty of help so that her students have a finished product to show off at the end . For more complicated projects, best to book earlier so that the teacher has time to prepare patterns ahead of time. Thanks for the wonderful experience Victoria!

Filiberto Pavan

I really loved the class. Victoria is a lovely teacher, she's very thorough and can really transmit her passion for ring making to the student. The class is in her living room with kitchenette, which makes it really cozy.
You will learn all of the steps of making a ring, perform some of the activities (Sawing, Annealing, bending the silver etc..) and for the majority of the tasks you will rely on Victoria's expert hands to get to your very own hand-crafted silver ring. Recommended!

Kanaka Bhandary

My teacher Victoria was super cool and experienced. She had all the beads and a great range to choose from. I had so much fun learning how to make my own Mala beads. She even spend extra time to teach me how to make beaded bracelet . So definitely worth the money. I am going back to learn more.

Maree Hill

Thanks Victoria for sharing your extensive jewellery knowledge and experience. I thoroughly enjoyed the class, learnt a lot and have a beautiful aquamarine ring to enjoy. Thanks again Victoria

Debbie Johnson

Amanda Ying

This class with Victoria was the perfect hands on learning experience on the key skills for stone setting. Victoria is very knowledgeable and a master at her work and I feel lucky to have been able to learn from her. Not to mention the gorgeous ring made as a result of this class!!!

Mala Webber

Victoria is a wonderful teacher. She has some beautiful pieces and very experienced. It was nice to learn how to put together a Mala with her.

I enjoyed using the Chakra cards to help me determine which crystals I could use, and as you can see from the pic, you have no idea what the finished product will look like once you start working with different crystals which makes it more fun.
