Wire Jewellery Workshop April 2023

Sunday 23rd April 2023. 10.30 -4.30pm.

Lunch, homemade cake and tea included.

Create your own unique piece of handmade jewellery using just wire, pliers, your hands and wrapping techniques. Adding glass beads for colour and texture, you’ll experiment with copper wire and the stitching and wrapping techniques I’ll teach you to create different effects, finally bringing all your work together to make your own necklace, which we’ll oxidise to create the charcoal grey finish I use in many of my designs. Your necklace can be long or short, as you choose, with matching earrings too if time allows. Equipment and materials will be provided, including one pair of sterling silver ear hooks to finish your earrings. If you wish to finish your necklace with a sterling silver chain too (instead of ribbon or necklace wire) there will be the option to purchase this on the day for around £7-£9.

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
