Britain's What's On Event Guide
Silver Clay Jewellery Workshop
Discover the amazing world of silver clay with this exciting introductory workshop ideal for beginners who don’t know how to get started with silver clay. During the session, you will learn all about this magical material and make some beautiful jewellery using the most basic of tools. You do not need any experience in working with metal clay to join this workshop, just bring your enthusiastic self.
In this workshop, you will learn the basic skills and techniques required to make simple and beautiful jewellery from metal clay to allow you to go away with some lovely pieces of jewellery and help you carry on making at home if you wish. You will learn all about Silver clay, its history and what makes it such an interesting metal to work with.
The workshop includes 10g of silver clay, which is enough to make three-five pieces of silver jewellery, depending on the sizes of the pieces you wish to make. Additional silver clay is available to purchase on the day should you fancy making more pieces of something a little bigger.
A standard 18” chain is included in the price, as are basic jump rings and ear hooks. However, if you wish to bring your own, that’s fine, we’ll help you attach them. Alternatively, other chains can also be purchased or ordered on the day at an extra cost.
Please be aware that you will not be able to make stud earrings or rings in this workshop. Making stud earrings with silver clay is a more advanced skill level and requires soldering techniques, which are taught in other workshops. In addition, ring making requires a clear understanding of clay types and shrinkage etc. and more practice of the fundamentals before attempting to make a ring. However, ring making is available in a separate workshop.
When you’re all finished, you will be given a jewellery box to take away your wonderful work.
Includes all materials.
