“I had the best time at the silversmithing class with Meaghan! I learned SO much and we also had a lot of fun. I was very nervous for the class, but within one minute of arriving I was having a great time. Meaghan is an amazing instructor and she is the kind of person you want to be around. She is so inspiring and knowledgeable about so many things- just some of the conversations we had while working were invaluable. I am leaving with 6 beautiful rings, one of the best weeks hanging out in Crested Butte and some new friends from the class. I love that when I get home, I have all of Meaghan's online classes to refer to and continue my silversmithing journey. I HIGHLY recommend working with Meaghan in any capacity you can!”— Erica L.

“My first thought when thinking of Meaghan as a teacher is generous…generous with her knowledge, sharing her training, her patience and the materials she provides. I truly feel that the 5 day course is worth every penny and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone interested in the techniques of silversmithing. Meaghan made us feel so relaxed and at ease. I felt I could be myself and there were lots of laughs. Her studio space is bright and right downtown. I guarantee there will soon be a waiting list to get in!” ~Jana R.

"What an INSPIRATION Meaghan is to this field. Her passion and knowledge is Wonderful and Helpful. She shows details that I never learned taking classes for 10 years. She is available for questioning and answering time. She looks for the best quality of supplies at the best price. She shows that there can be times when something may go wrong and let's you find another way to fix it, if possible. Her kind smile, her personality and passion show throughout the lessons. I have gained a great deal of confidence. I have thoroughly enjoyed being a part of this group. Thank you Meaghan for making this gift possible! C.F

“I just finished Meaghan’s week course on ring fabrication, stone setting and metal working.  It was a great course and awesome experience.  Not having a creative background, I was concerned this would be over my head, but Meaghan is an awesome teacher.  She is patient and walks you through each process in a fun and comfortable way.  By the time we finished our projects, I felt comfortable and excited about tackling projects on my own.  This was a very rewarding experience and I’m looking forward to taking more of Meaghan’s classes.” Lois R.
