Jewelry FAQ

Everything you need to know about making your own jewelry at LaProng — the workshops, pricing, booking, and services in the Dallas–Fort Worth area.

The Workshops

What is a LaProng DIY jewelry workshop?

You make your own ring or piece of jewelry by hand, working one-on-one with a master jeweler in the Carrollton studio. We guide you through every step — from shaping the metal to setting stones — so you leave with a finished piece you made yourself.

Do I need any experience?

None at all. Our workshops are completely beginner-friendly, and your jeweler walks you through each step at your own pace.

What can I make?

Engagement rings, wedding bands, special-occasion keepsakes, like charms and other group gifts. Tell us what you have in mind and we will help you plan it.

Will I take my piece home the same day?

In most cases, yes. Many pieces are finished and taken home the same day. More involved designs may need a little extra time, which usually takes 10-12 business days.

How long does a workshop take?

On average 4–6 hours, but it depends on your skill level, the scope of the work, and the level of finish you want.

Pricing & Materials

How much does a workshop cost?

Workshops start at $695 and vary by project depending on what you make. You can see current pricing for our all inclusive project packages. Written estimates are provided in advance for al’ carte workshops

Are materials included in the price?

Yes. All-inclusive workshop packages include your materials, and you can see exactly what each package covers in the store.

Booking & Logistics

Where are you located?

The studio is in Carrollton, Texas, and we serve the entire Dallas–Fort Worth area.

How do I book a workshop?

You can book online through the booking page, or contact us and we will help you find a time that works.

Can I book a private group or party?

Yes. We host bridal parties, bachelorette outings, and group celebrations, and each guest makes their own keepsake to take home.

What should I bring?

Nothing at all — just bring yourself. Everything you need is provided in the studio.

Repair, Appraisal & Custom Design

Do you offer jewelry repair and appraisal?

Yes. We provide professional jewelry repair such as ring sizing, prong retipping, and stone setting, as well as written appraisals for insurance, estate planning, and resale.

Do you create custom designs for me?

Yes. If you would prefer that we craft a piece for you, our custom design service brings your vision to life from concept to finished jewelry.
