Taster sessions
Learn Jewellery Making
Taster sessions are drop in sessions I run at The Dragon Hole throughout the year.
Everything is provided for you to create a small item of jewellery (pair of earrings, pierced or clipped) using professional tools and materials. This session gives you a quick sample of jewellery making. These can also be adapted for children, so how about arranging a birthday party?! I also bring this activity with me to the variety of fairs I attend throughout the year, so have a look at the Events page to find out where I'll be! Make a pair of earrings (clips or pierced) £2 per pair Please contact me directly for more information |
Workshops
I offer two or four hour workshops where you will learn how to make between two and four simple items of jewellery.
These can be here at The Dragon Hole, or arranged for a group at a location mutually convenient, like a local community centre (subject to additional fees due to centre costs) All equipment and materials are provided, and longer sessions include a break for tea and cake! |
