Maker
Harrison Becker Studios is run by a husband and wife team. Claudia is the Jeweller and Alastair is the wood turner. I have been making jewellery for many years. I have been working in retail, made repairs as well as commissions but most of all I enjoy teaching and passing on my knowledge in a fun and friendly way. I qualified as a Silver Clay Tutor in 2010 and have taught in East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire

FAQs
Yes, I can teach more than 4 but I would have to hire a venue as well as add some time to the workshop. All of this will make it slightly more expensive. Just message me.
I recommend that you bring an apron or that you wear something that you don't mind getting dirty. If you have a travel hairdryer that will come in handy as well.
No, just plenty of enthusiasm. You will be shown simple, step by step how to make the items
