A lovely message from a student…

Messages like this are why I LOVE teaching and sharing WERKSTATT.  The ring turned out beautifully. Congratulations Roy and Francis!

“Hello Jane!

It’s Monday morning and I’m bummed not to be heading to Burlington to work at your shop.  I wanted to let you know that I “counter-popped the question” to Francis on Saturday when we went to get our Christmas tree and he said YES! He LOVES the ring you helped me make!  It was so much fun telling him about the process and showing him the start to finish photos. Thank you so much for a great experience!  You are a gifted artist and teacher.

WERKSTATT is busy for the holidays

Here I am busy working away in WERKSTATT.  What a joy it is to be able to work at home, anytime I want/need to.  Remember you could always get some jewelry repaired as a holiday gift as well. However, you have to be able to sneak the piece out of the house undetected. That could be tricky.  Gift certificates are available for jewelry, classes or repairs.  I also would happily rework a piece of jewelry to turn it into something new and treasured.

With plenty of firewood stacked WERKSTATT is cozy for classes and for me to work as well.  The wood stove keeps the chill at away.
