NEW! We have another fantastic class lined up. Learn to make your own chains using silver and copper.
Techniques covered in this class include:
- Making jumprings and links of all shapes and sizes
- Soldering jumprings
- Creating finished chains
- Texturing and cutting metal and links
- Experimenting with different chain designs from small and intricate to chunky and statement.
Chains can be worn alone as a piece of jewellery or can be used to enhance your other jewellery by adding beads, pendents, charms etc...
This is a fun filled, intensive day of working in traditional methods with silver and a range of base metals.
Making chains means that you can really personalize every part of your jewellery and will also give you lots of practice with your soldering!
As with all of our classes, all materials are included in the cost of the class as well as plenty of tea coffee and luxury biscuits! The classes are all run by expert tutors with years of professional experience who are friendly, knowledgeable and approachable.
We take an hour break for lunch and there are plenty of local shops to get food from, or you can always bring a packed lunch to eat in the studio. If you have any questions regarding this, or other courses please don't hesitate to get in touch.
