I loved the atmosphere you have created in your beautiful studio" Sue. "A Wonderful day at the Feretia Jewellery Workshop with Linda. Our family of three recently attended a jewellery- making workshop with Linda at Darwin House, Shrewsbury, and we couldn't have had a better experience. It was an intimate, relaxed, informative day that left us with cherished memories and some beautiful handmade pieces! Linda was an exceptional host and teacher. Her warm and welcoming approach made us feel at ease from the start. She took the time to explain the techniques clearly and provided personalised guidance throughout the session. Her passion for jewellery making was contagious, and she had a wonderful way of encouraging creativity, whilst ensuring we felt confident in what we were doing. The setting at Darwin House was perfect - intimate and full of charm, which made the experience even more special. The small group size meant we could really connect with Linda and focus on learning without feeling rushed or overwhelmed. It was such a joy to see each of us create something unique and personal whilst learning new skills. The workshop was also relaxing. We laughed, chatted and thoroughly enjoyed the time together as family - whilst eating cake and drinking tea! Linda created an environment where we felt inspired and supported. We left the day not only with our jewellery, but also with a sense of accomplishment and creativity. It was a fantastic way to spend quality time with family and would wholeheartedly recommend Linda and Feretia jewellery workshops to anyone looking for a unique and meaningful experience. Thank you, Linda for a truly wonderful day - we can't wait to return for another workshop!" Ceri. Thanks so much Linda, what a therapeutic morning in your beautiful studio. Thoroughly enjoyable time had by all, we look forward to showing them off now!! " Hannah.
