Jewellery for Beginners - Easter Long Weekend
Description
Looking to kickstart your jewellery-making journey? Our three-day Easter Intensive is a concentrated and inspiring learning environment that you will love!
Our Easter Jewellery Making Intensive is perfect for students just starting out who want to enjoy three days of creativity while building their jewellery-making skillset.
No prior experience is required to join this class.
During the course, students will learn foundation jewellery-making skills alongside working on individual projects developed after consultation with the tutor.
The aim of this course is to provide students with the confidence and skills to work on individual projects while gaining a greater depth of understanding of jewellery techniques and design - starting from the ground up.
Our Easter Jewellery Making Intensive is a perfect introduction to jewellery making and jewellery design. All tools and base metals are provided, as well as sterling silver for your first project, and no previous experience in design or jewellery making is required.
Over 3 days of the Easter long weekend, students make a textured silver ring band, followed by a second project of their own design. Processes focusing on forming and texturing such as doming and stamping will be learned to aid you in your inspiration.
Many of our students produce outstanding work and continue to specialised workshops such as Stone Setting or Wax Carving and Casting.
