Silver Clay Play Day
Come and play with the possibilities of silver clay in this one-day
workshop.
With 10g of clay each to work with, you can choose what you will make,
with help and guidance from your tutor. Make a pendant, a pin brooch, a
ring or an earrings and pendant set. Add fireable stones, make moulded
shapes, or just sculpt something.
A discussion will take place first to make sure you get the best from
your clay and the day, then you will be guided through the construction,
firing and initial polishing of your piece. You can watch the
demonstration of other techniques to give you ideas for future projects.
Take home a solid silver piece at the end of the day, perfect for
yourself or as a unique gift for someone.
This course is suitable for beginners and improvers.
A light lunch, refreshments and 10g of silver clay are included in your
course fee. Additional clay, stones and fixings are available at an
extra cost, payable to your tutor on the day.

Make a Spinner Ring
Spend a day learning how to create a beautiful spinner ring.
First you will make a straight-sided silver band to a size of your
choice and a separate ‘spinner’ in brass or copper. Bring the two
together using a magical technique that makes the inner ring unfurl and
flute to capture the spinner whilst still allowing it to twirl. The
completed ring will be ready for you to wear or give as a gift by the
end of the day.
This course is suitable for complete beginners or improvers.
A light lunch, refreshments and all materials to make one spinner ring
are included in the course fee.

Make a Scene
Come and learn some copper-smithing techniques and put
together some 2D shapes to create your very own unique 3D mixed metal
sculpture.
First off you will learn how to texture, stamp and highlight the metal. Next comes the cutting, either using a saw or one of the various shape
cutting tools. After some very basic soldering, letter stamping and
assembling you will leave with a gorgeous sculpture which you can be
proud of. We will be working with copper, brass and small amounts of
silver, mounting the piece on wood.
This workshop is suitable for absolute beginners and improvers.
All materials, a light lunch and refreshments are included in the
workshop fee.
