6 hours

Class size 1 to 2 (public classes), 6 to 12
  £185 (PayPal Pay in 3 available)

Using carefully selected offcuts from sustainably sourced wood, you’ll discover how leftover materials can be transformed into elegant, refined forms, while transparent and opaque acrylic offcuts add a gem-like quality and confident pops of colour.
You’ll explore stacking, shaping, and finishing techniques to build your design into smooth, pebble-like curves or crisp, graphic geometries, suitable for pendants, earrings, or beads. This workshop celebrates thoughtful making and modern design, showing how reclaimed materials can sit comfortably within a polished, contemporary aesthetic.
Finish your piece by pairing it with a brightly coloured cord, a sterling silver chain, or silver ear wires — choosing the combination that best complements your design.
What you will learn:
  • Sawing and shaping acrylic and wood
  • Suitable methods for working with reclaimed materials
  • Drilling and joining techniques
  • Finishing and polishing for a professional result
What you'll get
A beautifully unique piece of jewellery!

Hi, I'm Jo, founder of Central Scotland School of Jewellery.
I started making jewellery because I loved the combination of creativity and problem-solving. Jewellery has an amazing way of turning simple materials into something people treasure, and I still find that just as exciting today.
In 2016, I founded Central Scotland School of Jewellery in Dunblane with the aim of making jewellery-making welcoming and accessible to everyone. Since then we've introduced thousands of people to the craft, from complete beginners making their very first ring to experienced jewellers developing specialist skills.
One of the things I'm most proud of is the team we've built. Alongside my own teaching, our workshops are delivered by a carefully selected group of experienced jewellers and specialist tutors, each chosen for their expertise and their friendly, supportive approach. Every tutor teaches to the same high standards that we've developed over the last ten years, so whichever workshop you join, you'll be in expert hands.
The best part of my job is watching someone arrive saying, "I'm not creative, " and leave a few hours later wearing something they've made themselves. That moment of surprise and pride never gets old.
Alongside running the school, I've taught at university level, worked with various national craft organisations, and regularly collaborate on projects that help make jewellery education more accessible.
Whether you're joining us for a fun day out, celebrating a special occasion or discovering a new hobby, we'd love to welcome you to the bench.
