Create two pairs of earrings

Join me at my home in Cornwall for a workshop experience where you will learn traditional skills and techniques needed to create jewellery, in a small group, in a relaxed atmosphere. You will learn to cut, prepare, texture and finish your own pieces of silver jewellery that you will take home at the end of the session.

In this session you will be making two pairs of sterling silver earrings. We will look at samples of stud and dangle earrings so that you can be inspired by designs and make choices before you learn to craft your own two pairs.

A short drive from St. Ives there is free parking on my driveway.

1. Due to the delicate skills required in making earrings this session is more suited to those that have already attended a beginners session (stacker rings, bangle with charms or ring and band sessions).
2. It is possible to complete this workshop as a complete beginner, but please message me on hello@sablecloudjewellery.co.uk before booking.

What to wear:

1. Please avoid wearing loose/baggy sleeved tops as these can get in the way when working with tools.
2. Comfortable clothes recommended as you will be seated for sometime.
3. Please wear closed toe shoes (dropping a hammer or ring mandrel on flip flop adorned feet is mighty painful😬 )
4. Please bring a jumper/hoody/cardie in case you get chilly as I will open windows to ventilate during soldering.
5. I will provide an apron to protect your clothes.

What to bring:

1. Hair tie if you have long hair
2. Reading glasses if you need them

I’ll provide everything else you need for the workshop.

1. You will firstly learn about Health and Safety when working with the various tools
2. You will look at examples of earring styles
3. You will learn the skills needed to create earrings from recycled silver
