Description
A 2-part jewellery making workshop exploring beautiful, sustainable materials to make unique pieces. Using British seaglass, tumbled and smoothed by the ebb and flow of the tides, you will create a pendant, charm bracelet and earrings, brooch or bookmark. Learn how to use jewellery making tools and a variety of techniques. Combine silver plated charms and findings with glass and semi-precious beads to design and complete your collection. After lunch, create an eye-catching Fork Handle Bangle from antique and vintage silverware. Fork handles have been artfully curled and prepared for you to add high-quality, semi-precious beads to form a bracelet. Many display monograms and hallmarks, adding interest. Learn further jewellery making techniques to make this statement piece; make a matching pair of earrings to create your set. This workshop is ideal for beginners and curious crafters; enjoy a relaxed and fun-filled workshop with step-by-step guidance, in a small group.
