Sarah was a lovely teacher and very patient with our class.
The materials provided were great enabling us to complete a project very similar to what was described in the outline of the course.
An excellent selection of options for snacks were also provided.

My friend and I went to this class with Sarah and we loved it. Sarah was a great teacher and provided us with the skills and tools we needed to make some really great mixed metal earrings. I loved that she provided good sterling silver wires to make ear hooks for a good quality finished piece. The venue was easy to find, had lots of character and had lovely cafes nearby for lunch before the workshop. A great afternoon out.

Teacher was lovely - patient and helpful. Venue was good although parking could be an issue at busy times. I came away with a lovely pair of earrings and a pendant from the ‘mistake’ I made. Good value for money. Lovely relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommend Auburn Love.

Unfortunately, I had a accident on the day, and was in hospital instead of my class.
They were very helpful with the whole having to ring and explain thing.
We've now moved to another date and we are both really excited.

The Metal Jewellery session conducted by Sarah was absolutely wonderful for Sarah is a great instructor. Initially, she explained the procedure and the tools and instilled such an harmonious atmosphere that led to those present, raring to create their masterpieces. It was fun. And most rewarding.

Fantastic small class, covered the basics of working with metals for jewellery making. Sarah was a mindful teacher that worked with each attendee to assist them to create what they were looking for.

Fiona Butler May 2023


Sarah was very knowledgeable and helpful. The workshop location was easy to find and parking was close by. Sarah supplies everything you need to make an original creation. She shares her equipment and skills with you so that everyone leaves with a completed piece of jewellery.

She was very patient and always there to guide and support.
The venue was spacious and fairly easy to get to.

Sarah was a wonderful teacher and very welcoming to us all. I had a great time, learnt lots and will look at doing another one of her workshops again in the future to learn more.
The little mindful meditation before we started was also lovely and grounding

Great workshop. Flexible allowing for each person to find their own individuality. Good range of base metals, shapes and then tools to work the metal and make your own creation. Sarah stepped through the process and ensured plans were achievable in the timeframe of the workshop. Venue comfortable and convenient. Love my earrings.

Incredibly patient, Sarah really helped me make a unique gift for my daughter who refuses to take it off. Everything was explained, materials were fantastic and the experience was one I would recommend to anyone looking for a date idea.

Lisa Neuhold Nov 2022


Great class The instructions from Sarah were great and she is very attentive and ready to help when I had many questions :-)

Look forward to seeing different types of classes and exploring more jewellery making workshops.

Sarah is great, excellent teacher, wonderful space and I enjoyed this class immensely.
Highly recommend!

Gab Olga Sep 2022


The class was great and I'm really glad we went. I took my 13 year old daughter and we both made different earrings in the time set. Sarah was a fabulous teacher who has a very calming and welcoming energy. There were times I felt like I needed some additional help but never felt judged or silly asking for it. If you wear glasses for close up work, definitely take them along! And be prepared for it to be quite noisy at times with the hammering.

This class was so relaxing and walked away with two amazing pairs of earrings. The venue was beautiful - surrounded with beautiful plants and serenity. Sarah ran the class with a really gentle nature, explained the process and was on hand when we got stuck. I would highly recommend the class and the venue :)

The teacher was knowledgeable, relaxed and helpful. This was the first time I did something like this and I learnt a lot about the process.

The venue was stunning and created a very relaxed and chilled atmosphere. The venue was also perfect in creating inspiration for the potential earring designs.

All materials were provided and were in good working order. There was also a lot of choice where I felt I could create earring that were creative and true to my character.

What a wonderful way to end a busy week. The small group allowed for one on one instruction with the teacher as needed and along with the beautiful location and ambient music, helped create a calm atmosphere that allowed us to be focused and creative. We all walked away with quality handmade jewellery that will be loved and worn. I would highly recommend this workshop to anyone looking to de-stress, explore their creative side or learn some new skills.
