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
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.
