Love the classes, the jewelry, and the crew. Definitely look through their website if you haven't already. I've taken the Silversmithing class and the Wax Carving - Rings class. Had a blast at both. Class tip: bring lunch, cause you're gonna be busy for hours. Time will fly by and you'll be starving afterward. -

xIntro to Jewelry Casting
I had a great time on this class. Scott is an awesome and very fun entertaining teacher, and tries to help each of the attendants to have a personalized experience despite being a very introductory class. The theory and the practice is very well balanced and we were able to go home with a couple of nice pieces, plus very hungry for more. I'll for sure be taking the advanced class as a next step. I found that carving wax for a few hours and hanging out in the class was an amazing way to get in a zen state after work as well as to earn an awesome new skill. -
Wax II: Stone Setting
Loved it. This is my third class with Liloveve. Fantastic teachers, small class size, personalized attention, and you leave with a fabulous piece of jewelry that you made yourself. -
Wax II: Stone Setting
A really excellent class for learning the basics of stone setting in wax - Emilie is also a great resource if you have more specific questions about more complex settings in wax, once you have a good feel for things. I gained a lot of confidence from this class to move beyond what was covered in class on my own. Highly recommended. -

Wax Carved Jewelry Workshop
This way a great class I really enjoyed it. The time went by too fast. The teacher was very knowledgable and gave clear / details instructions. She also took time to check in with everyone and even help brainstorm through some of our projects. The studio is a great space and the big ol' fat cats were fun to see too ;) Thanks I hope to join another class in the near future. -

Ring Making from Wax to Metal
The class was small, the teachers were friendly and knowledgeable, and there was a wide selection of tools available to use for carving. I came into the first session with no metalworking experience at all, and this course gave me the knowledge and hands-on-experience to start working on my own. More importantly, I had a great time. -

Intro to Wax Carving
The instructor was so nice and really took the time to help everyone. I intend to sign up for the metal smithing class in the fall. I would recommend anyone to take a class there or just visit and see the showroom.
