At My Studio - Haberdashery and Wire Jewellery

Sunday 26th September 2021, 1pm-5pm

Tea and homemade cake included

Transform vintage sewing box treasures into elegant jewellery. I’ll teach you how to make a necklace and matching earrings using wire, upcycled haberdashery, glass beads and my wire stitching technique. First we’ll practice stitching with wire and then we will go on to make finished pieces, you can expect to make something similar to the jewellery pictured, though the bead drops on these designs are optional. We’ll finish the jewellery with sterling silver findings and chain, which can be oxidised, as shown here, or left shiny if you prefer. Materials are included, and include one sterling silver 18 inch chain and one pair of sterling silver hooks, additional findings can also be bought on the day so you can finish any extra designs you make too.

This workshop takes place at Spout Brew House, on the first floor, my studio is above this room on the second floor and you’ll be able to visit my studio too.

Spout Brew House, 70 St Edward Street, Leek, ST13 5DL
