Don?t believe the hype! Without going into detail, I will say that it is not what it appears. Her only saving grace in running this school is her highly experienced and talented...

Great place!! 11/2/2009

Kristin is an amazing artist and was truly an inspiration to my own creative process. I am currently working on my own line thanks to the knowledge I gained at the school. The environment was creative and professional I felt free to express my own ideas and at the same time Kristin was there to guide me through every step of the way. A+ Pros: Location, great teachers, beautiful environment Cons: not enough room! more

This School is Amazing! 11/2/2009

This studio and school is the most inspirational and creative place I have been in a long time. I have studied jewelry in all the NY schools and many others on the east coast and Ms. Hanson provides the best education so far. Although she is a busy business woman, she always makes time to guild me in my projects. Very talented, skilled, and patient teachers are there day to day to walk everyone through each project. Everyone in my class is making such beautiful advanced jewelry in such a short time. All the students whom I have spoke to are very happy with the school and their progress with learning. Most people sign up again and again. This is a new school and I know Ms. Hanson is working hard at perfecting her company and the education of her students. I say this place is a winner. Although it is only a little more expensive them some of the trade schools, it is a private education! All schools have complaining students. If you want to learn jewelry in NYC this is the place. I recommend it to anyone. Pros: beautiful studio, great teachers, I really learned Cons: Not open enough nights more

Overrated 10/3/2009

I was lured in by the sales pitch and deeply regret my decision to take classes. Yes, the space is nice but it's extremely expensive for what you get. K Hanson rarely teaches, and the other instructors are busy designing for K Hanson so they don't have a lot of time to tend to the students. I was also charged $400 (pus tax) for a tool box that I later found out had about $100 worth of materials. There was no supply list, so I could not purchase the materials myself. My credit card was also charged without my knowledge on more than one occasion. Buyer beware!!! Pros: The space Cons: Not enough attention, price more

Be Careful 9/29/2009

Don?t believe the hype! Without going into detail, I will say that it is not what it appears. Her only saving grace in running this school is her highly experienced and talented jeweler, along with one other instructor. Anyone who spent any time in this place knows exactly what I am talking about. If you want to spend your hard-earned money on ?atmosphere,? it delivers. But if you want to feel like you are a valued student at a serious learning institution, you may be disappointed. Yes, it is the only school in the area of its kind, but that doesn?t mean you will get out of it what you should. After a relatively short period of time, you will figure out where your money is going. more

Best school of it's kind 2/12/2009

I first went to the studio to take a tour and was amazed by the beautiful loft and highly trained students working hard and focused. The course provides a flexible schedule which is great for someone with a busy life, and gives individual attention to each student. It is so refreshing to be in a program where cool people are all working on their own designs, others schools don't offer. I loved the projects and curriculum that Kristin created. Pros: great studio, skilled instructors, flexible schedule, express trains more

this place is inspiring 2/2/2009

When I first came to the studio, I was looking for a place to go at night and on the weekends to explore a life-long hobby of mine. I had never worked with metal before, but I have always loved beading and making jewelry for friends and family. From the moment I walked in, I wanted to be able to come in everyday. It is such a beautiful and peaceful studio that houses Kristin's gallery, too. The students at the school all have different goals in their jewelry making. So it is fun to see what everyone is working on and get ideas from each other. I lost my job at Christmas, and I have started coming to school here full-time. I have learned a ton about not just making jewelry, but building my own business. This school is a unique and special place, which provides an amazing opportunity for anyone interested in jewelry design. I think the combination of a flexible schedule, one on one training, and the studio's atmosphere make this school one of kind. You have to see it to believe it. Pros: flexible schedule, inspiring studio atmosphere, one-on-one instruction more

The most amazing jewelry gallery in NYC! 1/9/2009

When I walked into Kristin Hanson Fine Jewelry gallery I was amazed! She turned a rustic industrial loft into a luxurious, elegant, and creative gallery and jewelry workshop. She sat me down on a lovely couch and offered me a cup of delicious tea. The studio was filled with jewelry artists working away to music. Pros: Very helpful, creative designs, true craftsmanship, easy to get to more

not recommended 1/8/2009

early on in my course i found the the school to be extremely helpful for developing my skills as a jewelry designer, however I was soon disappointed by the way the school was run and the lack of attention given to many of the students. The working environment became unbearable and unproductive and I realized that I was not going to receive what I was garrunteed. To students interested in attending, i must warn that if you wish to come out of this school with something to show, you must actively search for and demand attention. In a school that strives to offer more than it is able, this is not an easy acheivement for the student. Pros: attractive work space Cons: a facade more

Beautiful and Unique Selection! 1/4/2009

I recently visited Kristin Hanson's Jewelry Gallery and I was amazed by the selection of fine jewelry she provides. The jewelry was very unique and well put together. I could tell that I was buying quality jewelry that would also portray my own sense of style and luxery. The school was interesting to see and the students all seemed very focused. After learning more about Kristin Hanson Jewelry, I was quite impressed with the whole operation she has. Pros: Personalized Service, Great Selection, Unique Styles more
