Here are some photos of our recent Jewellery Workshop for Beginners!

After a slow start on the list of applicants we eventually had 10 starters, all of whom had had little or no experience.

Two projects were tackled, a piercing exercise on Saturday to make a pendant; and a soldering exercise on Sunday to make a bracelet.

Everyone looks very serious here but there was lots of chatting and laughing as most attractive pieces were created.

Sunday found us winding and sawing links for the charm bracelet for which we made a ‘watch chain’ catch.

Everyone should have been thoroughly pleased with themselves as without exception all the pieces made could be worn with great pride.
