Teen and Adult Silversmithing Workshop for Beginners

Get creative with your young teen and bond over learning how to craft your own stacking rings at this jewellery making class!

You'll start by using bronze wire to learn how to make simple, textured rings before working your new skills on sterling silver to create one chunky or two slim stacking rings with texture — so they catch the light and all the compliments!

Already got enough rings? Why not be a little more adventurous. Use your rings in other ways to make fabulous earrings with French hooks or a cute pendant on a custom made cord.

If you have already been to one of my courses before, you won't need to start from scratch, instead use your extra time to build on your skills and create something different - design your own ring, earrings or pendant

With helpful guidance from your teacher, you'll pick up a host of handmade jewellery techniques and might even discover a shared hobby to continue with your children. It's a great chance to get them away from the screens for a hands-on experience that'll leave you with your own beautiful custom rings.
