An exciting half day workshop exploring the possibilities of combining decorative inclusions with fused glass to make up to five unique pieces of jewellery. Experiment with clear sheet glass, copper sheet and wire, delicate metal leaf and sparkling mica powders, combining to create beautiful effects. All work made during the day will need to be fired in a kiln and collected at a later date.

Using a selection of water based dyes, permanent markers and inks, spend most of the day dyeing and patterning aluminium and then fixing the colours to make them permanent. Aluminium is a very easy metal to work with and, in the last part of the workshop, you will cut some simple shapes to make pendants or earrings and look at other exciting possibilities. This is a very easy craft to continue at home.
