121 Jewellery Courses!
Have you ever wanted to try your hand at making jewellery
but don’t have the time to sign up for weeks of evening
classes? Come and stay at my house on the edge of the moors
where you will use my workbench in the studio and have 121
jewellery
tuition. As someone who has been designing and making
jewellery for over 30 years, I can offer courses adapted to
individual needs, from beginners and students wanting a “try
out” session, to those with experience already who wish
to develop their skills further. Couples can come and make
each others wedding rings, creating a truly unique and special
heirloom to be passed on to future generations.

Chadderton FGA
Yvonne
Chadderton is featured in November 2009's edition
of Ideal Home magazine!
An avid DIY enthusiast, Yvonne completely re-designed her
bathroom after moving house recently and Ideal Home decided
it had a big enough “wow” factor to merit a three
page article. Yvonne specialises in making Opal Jewellery
that she sources directly from the mines at Coober pedy in
Australia. The design of Yvonne’s new bathroom is an
extension of that theme, featuring mosaic opalescent tiles,
which add iridescent colour to what is a minimalist bathroom
of grey and white.
