Create a Piece of Sea Glass Jewellery

Join me at my home in Cornwall for a workshop experience where you will learn the techniques needed to create drilled sea glass jewellery. The workshop is made up of a small group, working in a relaxed atmosphere.

You will be shown some samples of makes, then you can choose to make either a pendant or a pair of earrings. You will learn techniques to shape, solder and texture the slim silver, drill sea glass and assemble everything to create your very own special sea glass jewellery that you will take home at the end of the session (note: some elements - jump rings, ear wires - will be prefabricated). Please bring a selection of your own sea glass treasure to turn into jewellery. If you do not have any sea glass there is a limited supply (mostly white) that you can choose from in my workshop.

A short distance away from St. Ives there is free parking available on my driveway.

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.

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