This review is regarding the intro to small metals class I purchased on Living Social and used last month. Wow I was so impressed with this class, the studio, and Lauren as a teacher. I have dabbled in various arts and crafts over my lifetime including some jewelry making. I previously took a "stamping metal" class in another state for about the same price as this class was.. And wow... What a bargain! We learned so many techniques in this class! Stamping/hammering/making rivets/ creating rings/earrings/wire bending/torch usage... Just such an amazing little studio with so many resources. She also gave a lot of "inspiration" pieces for us to look at. We had almost unlimited access to everything in the studio that she showed us and could make as much jewelry as we wanted with what was provided. I can't wait to come back and try a class to learn soldering and bezeling...The class was 4-5 hours so I brought a snack to hold me over since we had a lunch break. You can make so many gifts for people with the skills learned in this class!The location was a little hard for me to find.. U pull into this art warehouse space and her studio is on the right side of the parking lot in the smaller building not the BIG warehouses.

For anyone desiring to make their own jewlery, I highly recommend Meltdown Studio. Lauren and Sarah are amazing. They give individual instruction and assistance. The attached ring was just the latest of my efforts. I named it Loopy because it isn't perfect and I like it that way.

I cannot overhype my awesome experience. I came with three friends using an Amazon Local coupon for a 5-hour class. The class was small (7) and we got lots of personal attention. Lauren is an amazing teacher for those of us with nary a single artistic bone in our bodies. We were stamping metals within 30 minutes. We used a blowtorch, rolled and embossed metals, riveted pieced together and actually left with functional jewelry pieces. Bravo and highly recommended!

My Fiance had my engagement ring made here and we just picked up our wedding bands and I can not say enough great things about Lauren Tobey!Her work is amazing and obviously made with a great care for detail and most importantly, LOVE!She met with my Fiance and I before making my engagement ring to get an idea of what I wanted and I have to see I was totally wowed by the end result! Same went for our wedding bands. She is more than willing to work with you too if the end result isn't just perfect. I ended up preferring a more matte finish for my band and she was quick to make it exactly what I wanted.Lauren was such a pleasure to work with I actually had her make me a necklace out of some pearls i was given as a baby - and as expected - the necklace is gorgeous.I know Lauren will be someone we work with plenty in the future for all our jewelry needs.Thank you Meltdown and Lauren for your amazing work and making all of our wedding jewelry needs such an amazing experience!!!
