Maker's bio

I began my journey into Silver Metal clay whilst running a pottery studio in 2012 and soon became hooked! The magic of turning a piece of clay into a solid piece of Hallmark Silver never fails to amaze me and I love sharing this with my students and helping them create a lovely piece of jewellery that they can wear proudly home makes my job the best. I hold a Higher Diploma in Silver Metal Clay and am a senior metal clay instructor and glass teacher. I have been teaching for over ten years running classes from my studio in Market Bosworth and many jewellery schools and galleries all around the Midlands area. I am a member of The Guild of Jewellers and am on the education committee of the alliance of metal clay. I also hold a Gold student choice award. One of my proudest moments was visiting Tokyo and seeing one of my pieces displayed in the Silver Accessories Exhibition. I would love to meet you on one of my courses so please book as soon as you can. Louise x

Sue Parkes reviewed: Sea Glass Jewellery Workshop

"Did this course with my daughter and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. There is the perfect balance between being shown how to do things and plenty of time to actually have a go at your own pace. We came away with a set of beginner skills that would allow us to build on the knowledge at home. "

Louise Anne designs responded:

"Hi Sue, thank you for your review - it was lovely to meet you both . Hope your jewellery was much admired ! Louise😊"

Ellen reviewed: Silver Jewellery making half day taster session

"Louise introduced me to the silver clay in a clear, fun way and carefully guided me through the process to make a gorgeous necklace. Her studio is peaceful and her approach was gentle. She left me space to do what I could do and advised and demonstrated as needed. Thank you for a fabulous morning"

Louise Anne designs responded:

"So glad you enjoyed your morning it was lovely to meet you 😊"

""Amazing day learning how to use silver clay, drill sea glass and set into a bezel. Gained lots of tips including how to shape pieces, stick layers together, fill holes, fire and burnish in her craft room with a lovely view.""
