Creative, introspective, and FUN!

My husband and I had a fabulous time making our own rings! Pamela was patient and very personal…she walked us through each aspect. An experience giving you the opportunity to be creative and introspective….and have fun at the same time!

Best way to learn about the ring

It was fun, and cool to see get to know others while crafting the ring. Also learning more about its meaning and history

Hoorah!!

Holy cow, what an experience!! And a cladagh ring to boot, marvelous teachers. Trust in the process says the neon - no kidding. A ring is made at the final step. :)

Definitely do it!

Totally worth it, and special because you made it yourself. It will serve as wonderful reminder of how fun my trip was and how warm and welcoming the people of Ireland were!

Cool Souvenir

Fun and cool experience. My daughters enjoyed it. My husband and I enjoyed the pub next door since if you wanted to stay you had to pay an observer fee since the studio is small. There are 2 locations and even if you go to where instructed you may have to go to the second location. Give yourself a few extra minutes arrival in case you need to go to the second location.
