Absolutely loved teaching our first programmed Resin for Beginners workshop yesterday to a lovely group! Everyone’s creativity was flowing, some got inspired by what we had to play with and others bought in their own precious materials to embed.
A great two hour class to create some unique, personal keepsakes. Perfect for adults and children over 8 years old. (Children MUST be accompanied by a participating adult)

Our next session is on Saturday 1st August 10-12pm.

Another great workshop taster session yesterday with a lovely group. Thank you to everyone that came along. We played with enamel, beads, hammers and punches then finished the session with a lampworking bead demo.

We had visitors to our amazing student exhibition, showed new visitors around our workshop and told anyone that would listen about our full range of jewellery making workshops! Love, love, loved it!!

Thanks again to all my wonderful helpers!

This weekend I’m trading at the Harcourt Arboretum in Nuneham Courtenay for their Spring fair! So much happening with lots to see and do for the whole family.

We’ll be there selling our handmade jewellery and kits, promoting our workshops and telling you all about our workshop taster days coming up!

Currently feeling very ‘springy’ with our gorgeous gemstone necklaces and brightly coloured freshwater pearl earrings!

Hope to see you soon
