Join this sea glass jewellery workshop and learn how to encase these ocean treasures in fine silver, crafting a beautiful pendant or a pair of earrings. This activity is perfect for beginners looking to learn the art of silver jewellery making, and also welcoming to those with some prior experience.
You'll be gently guided through each technique, learning how to manipulate fine silver to securely hold your chosen piece of sea glass. We’ll take the pressure off by walking you through the process step-by-step, ensuring you feel supported as you discover this rewarding craft. You'll learn how to:
  • Select the perfect piece of sea glass
  • Measure your glass
  • Select and form the appropriate fine silver strip size for the glass
  • Solder setting and jump rings
  • Make fittings using pliers and silver wires for your pendant or earrings
  • Solder all components together
  • Use acrylic and metal stone setting tools to secure your glass
  • Sand and polish your piece
It's a wonderful way to switch off and get hands-on with natural materials. All the tools and silver for two pendants are included, so you can focus entirely on the joy of creating.
By the end of this workshop, you’ll have turned found ocean treasures into cherished keepsakes, leaving with a newfound sense of confidence and a pair of beautiful, handmade pieces to show off.
What you'll get
All materials for 2 pendants are included in the course fee.
Knowledge required
  • This jewellery making class is beginner-friendly but some experience of soldering and stone setting is beneficial.

  • The setting is hard on your hands and requires quite a bit of force from the wrist and arm.

Hi, I'm Beccy Gillat and I'm passionate about helping you to discover the wonderful world of jewellery making, silversmithing and more!
I run a number of different jewellery making courses in the beautiful village of Yardley Hastings which is conveniently located within easy reach of Northampton, Milton Keynes and Bedford.
There are courses to suit all levels of ability from complete beginners to those with some experience. One off workshops, multi week courses and 1:1 or private group booking all available, so please do get in touch if you have a specific technique you’d like to learn or special piece you would like to make.
I have years of experience and expertise from not only my studies (BA Metalwork and Jewellery making and MA Goldsmithing, Silversmithing, Metalwork and Jewellery) but also from residential programmes, craft fairs and having my work displayed in art galleries across the world.
The workshop has come a really long way since Yardley Arts first opened 4 years ago. Originally the workshop was set to be a multi-use area and was named the craft room but I slowly took over the space and with my tool addiction and slowly filled the space with lots of kit.
It is a real pleasure to help someone make a piece of jewellery so personal to them that they will wear and treasure for a lifetime. Who knows it might even get passed down to younger family members one day.
