Testimonials about Carolyn’s Classes

“I thoroughly enjoyed my evening with Carolyn. She was knowledgeable, thorough, and entertaining. I came home with a really cute necklace that I am wearing tonight. Her next class, which will be through Dabble, is a bird house. I plan on signing up to take that with her if the dates work out. I will stay abreast of what she teaches because I would like to continue attending her classes.” – Linda


“Wonderful experience! Carolyn is a great teacher. Demonstrated each step clearly and gave each of us personalized attention. Learned a new skill and had fun in the process. Could add our own touch, dabble (pardon the pun!) and be creative. Appreciated the handout!” – Noreen


“Loved the class. I was running a little late and the instructor accommodated me. She was extremely helpful and the class was a lot of fun. I would definitely recommend this class.” – Marquita


“I enjoyed this class very much. I was searching for a personal and hands on way to help pollinators. This class accomplished this for me. The lesson plan was well written out and easy to follow. The instructor Carolyn was very knowledgeable about the project. There is a lot of creativity built into this project. There are many colors to choose from as well as many stencil choices. The atmosphere was warm, friendly, and creative. I would recommend this class to others.” – Tomma

“Loved both the class (Jewelry Basics) and the teacher! We made a bracelet and a necklace, and I felt that I learned at a lot of great techniques. I also LOVE my new jewelry. The teacher was also very friendly and helpful. I definitely plan on taking more classes with her in the future.” – Nikki

“I had a great time at yesterday’s class. Not only did I learn how to make the beads, I learned a lot about the supplies we were using, and I really liked hearing why we were doing one thing and why we should not do another thing. I came out of the class with beads AND knowledge! You were a great teacher. You kept things going, and there was never a dull moment. Thanks, Carolyn! I can’t wait to do it again!” – Terri, St. Charles


“I really enjoyed Carolyn’s Polymer Clay Bead class. Before the class started at Hobby Lobby, Carolyn took time to help me find the supplies I needed. She was very knowledgeable about the products we were using & gave good safety tips. Carolyn made clay beads along with us so we could actually see ‘how to’. Carolyn gave us an outline of the different steps were going to take to complete the project. She was patient & open to questions. I’m looking forward to the second part of this project–making a bracelet with the clay beads.” – Chris, St. Peters
