Description
The "Smarty Bead" is a very different piece of jewellery - suitable to wear with casual clothes, or dress up for a special occasion too. At this very unique workshop, which is suitable for beginners and improvers alike, you will cut, stamp (or leave plain) letters or symbols, dome and form two sides of the bead. You will then solder the two sides together and make a bail to hang it on a chain. Yes, it’s that simple but complex too and that’s where I come in to guide you stage by stage to a perfect finish. You will have plenty of practice with cutting out and stamping on copper at the start to give you some confidence. Always enjoyed; informative and fun with a stunning piece of sterling silver jewellery to take home with you.
What's included in the price?
All sterling silver used, refreshements. Please bring a packed lunch and if you require a silver chain, you can purchase one on the day (but let me know length beforehand and I'll make sure I have one in stock).

Maker
Hello. I am Wendy from WMM Silver. As a jeweller of long standing, and also a B.Ed qualified tutor, I have been teaching in the South West for the past 20 years. I love seeing what results can be achieved by beginner students within a few hours with the right stage-by-stage instruction. My aim is to provide a safe and fun forum for you to learn and enjoy and take home a special piece of jewellery to remember your day. All this is done in my dedicated studio at the Taurus Crafts visitor centre in Lydney where you can also browse the lovely shops and eat in the onsite cafe during your break. I also teach in outreach venues when requested and in private homes for special occasions. My workshops are always highly enjoyed and I've received more than 245 x 5* Google reviews as a result of happy customers.
