Feedback from Hannah Samuel on 24 Aug 2010 What an inspirational speaker and presenter Lisa-Jane is! Heard her give a 5 minute micro-presentation this morning that left me spellbound! Speaking about her involvement with the 'Beads Of Courage' initiative that supports child-cancer patients and their families, Lisa-Jane hand-crafted a stunning glass butterfly in front-of us to demonstrate how important, and valuable, each bead created for Beads Of Courage is. A terrific speaker, a hugely talented artist and an amazing woman! Highly recommended.

I recently did a two-day Beginners Workshop at Born To Bead. Lisa-Jane was a great teacher, with a huge passion for what she does. Her knowledge and skill shone through in her teaching and indeed inspired me to want to continue making glass beads. Great job!

Beware you may get hooked! Lisa-Jane is not only an exquisite and award winning bead maker but is an excellent tutor who has the patience of a Saint, particularly for the coordinately challenged like me. I did the introductory Lamp Working Workshop which I thoroughly enjoyed and found most relaxing, therapeutic and frustrating all at the same time. I highly recommend you pay Lisa-Jane a visit, you wont be disappointed, you may even get hooked.

I've now done two workshops with Lisa-Jane at Born To Bead and highly recommend them. Lisa-Jane is enthusiastic, talented and an excellent tutor. She freely shares her knowledge and passion for lamp working and has created a learning environment that is welcoming and fun. The studio set-up and equipment is also great and I can't wait to visit again.

Feedback from Jo Tricker on 23 Jan 2010
In 2008 I attended a two day Beginner's workshop with Lisa at Annie Rose in Whangarei and then last week (January 2010) Lisa was in my town (Tauranga) and gave me one-on-one tuition! Both occasions were awesome - Lisa is a fantastic, easy going and clever teacher who is not afraid to share her knowledge of flameworking and it's artistic alchemy! Thanks Lisa can't wait to do it again!

Feedback from Graham on 23 Jan 2010
I spent a day with my son and daughter doing the beginners workshop day 1. Lisa-Jane gave us a fantastic day and is an extremely patient and polite teacher. (Especially considering the lack of artistic talent and skills of the three of us had, that she needed to deal with). A fascinating and fun day Thank you Lisa-Jane.

I travelled from Mt Maunganui to do the Beginners Workshop Day 1 & 2. I found Lisa-Jane to be very informative, helpful and patient. She was a great teacher and I had lots of fun. I can't wait to get behind the flame again.

Feedback from Bobbie Pene on 03 Jul 2009
Attending one of Lisa-Janes workshops was difficult for me due to my busy work schedule so I did one on one training with her. I was instantly addicted. Her teaching style is relaxed and supportive. I have since attended two more workshops and purchased my own home studio. She is easy to contact and always willing to assist. I highly recommend attending a workshop if you want to learn the art of glass bead making, glass fusing, or precious metal art clay.

I found this workshop absorbing and fascinating, and Lisa-Jane was a superb tutor. Just enough information and lots of encouragement to get a beginner going. I also appreciated the attention given to safety, and becoming confident in the use of the tools. Lisa-Jane is very knowledgeable about all things glass in NZ and happy to share. Thank you for a wonderful intro to the world of glass bead making!

I was very impressed with how helpful and well organised Lisa-Jane is; the course content, travel arrangements and workshop safety all well thought out and planned. A very professionally run weekend -Thanks Lisa-Jane

Feedback from Vicky T Hunt on 18 Mar 2009
What an amazing experience! My first time melting glass. I had a brilliant and informative time. Lisa-Jane took things at a nice steady pace and it was also great fun. I would definately be back in her studio like a shot if she just lived a little nearer. What about moving your studio to this side of the bridge? Thanks again Lisa-Jane, vicky

I have taken other lampworking class before but Lisa's class teach me great tricks to achieve better results. Lisa is very patient and a great teacher, she would try her best to help students get a better understanding of the art. And I really like her studio, you can just spend the whole afternoon there looking at her beads and books.

I have attended the beginners workshop with Lisa Jane and I feel she is a great inspiration! I have begun my beading journey under her watchful eye and I am enjoying every minute of it. Lisa Jane is friendly, caring and so easy to get on with. Every time I visit, time simply flies. Thanks for introducing me to lampworking - now I'm addicted!

Feedback from Christine on 07 Aug 2008
I really enjoyed Lisa's beginning lampworking weekend. I traveled from Christchurch as there is no other place nearby I could find that teaches this art. Lisa is a wonderful and gracious host, all along the way she was so helpful with my travel arrangements. When I got there, I found a very organized, clean, pleasant studio to work in. I found her instruction to be excellent. She moved at a perfect pace and soon enough, I was making beads. She made sure to cover all the safety aspects of lampworking, which is very important. I feel after being there, I could set up my own home studio no problem. I would recommend Lisa and Born to Bead to anyone interested in learning this wonderful art.

Feedback from Karilea Lindsay-Beale on 06 Aug 2008
Having completed a beginners glass bead making course in Whangarei, I knew I was empassioned. Discovering Lisa's Bead Studio in Auckland was a dream come true - I did not have to travel so far! I hire the studio a couple of times a week now and book lessons and courses with Lisa on a regular basis. She is a wonderful teacher - very thorough, patient and encouraging, and often goes out of her way to accommodate me. I am now part of the Born to Bead family through and through!
