This beginner-friendly silver jewellery-making workshop gives you the choice of creating either a personalised pendant or earrings

This beginner-friendly silver jewellery-making workshop in Westbourne, Bournemouth gives you the choice of creating either a personalised pendant necklace or a pair of silver earrings.

Add initials, names, significant dates or a meaningful word to your design. You can also choose a coloured cubic zirconia to represent a birthstone, then explore different textures, stamps and cutters to make your jewellery feel completely individual.

No previous jewellery-making experience is required. You’ll be guided through the process from your first design idea to your finished piece of solid silver jewellery.

What You’ll Make

Choose to create:

✨ A personalised silver pendant necklace

✨ A handmade pair of silver earrings

Not sure what you’d like to make? Examples will be available, and I’ll help you develop a design that works well with silver clay.

Learn the Silver Clay Process

Silver clay is a fascinating material made from recycled silver particles, water and an organic binder.

While it’s in its clay form, you can roll, shape, stamp and texture it. During firing, the binder burns away and the silver particles fuse together, leaving solid fine silver.

Every stage will be demonstrated clearly, with individual help available whenever you need it.

Silver Clay & Additional Materials

Your ticket includes 7g of silver clay, which is usually enough to create a pendant or a pair of earrings, depending on your chosen size and design.

If you decide you’d like to make a larger piece or create more than one design, extra silver clay and additional findings will be available to purchase during the workshop.
