From Silver Clay to Sea Glass to Felting
Focusing mainly on metal clay, you can learn how to make your own silver jewellery at home. It is true alchemy taking a clay like material and turning it into beautiful silver jewellery which is of hallmark-able quality.
Take a look through our wide range of workshops, from beginners to advanced, where you can learn how to use the clay and make your jewellery and then how to add gemstones, glass, gold and resin.
