Silver Earrings and Pendants

Silver Earrings and Pendants are a perfect introduction to jewellery making

Come on your own or with friends, come for a full day or just half-a day - whatever you choose I guarantee you'll have a fun day out, learn lots and take beautiful jewellery home with you!

No previous experience of jewellery making is needed so this is a perfect project for beginners. You will be guided through everything you need to know step-by-step, from how to cut your silver to soldering and polishing - and of course texturing.

You will have access to a few different methods of texturing - hammering, using texture punches and also using the rolling mill.

Do be warned though - once you've started making jewellery you may not want to stop!

 

Is this topic a half day or full day's tuition?

A half day is enough time to make a couple of pieces of jewellery, your choice of earrings or pendants ( or both!). However, if you'd like to make more than that or to combine two half-day projects (bangles or silver rings maybe?) in one day then you are more than welcome!

Is any previous experience needed?

No, none at all! I will take you through everything you need step by step. This a great project for a fun day out, and it's also an ideal project for starting your jewellery making journey as it teaches basic skills that are important for other projects.

What are the material costs?

Materials (sterling silver wire and sheet) are available for purchase on the day. The exact cost of the materials will be determined by the size and therefore weight of the pieces you make and the price of silver on the day, however material costs for a couple of projects is approximately £12.
