Make a Silver Ring - Classic Weekend Workshop

Sale price £79.00

Turn a strip of silver into a ring made by you

It's hard to imagine, when you first pick up the flat strip of silver that in just a few hours you'll be wearing it as a finished ring.

In this three-hour jewellery-making workshop you'll work through the process of turning that silver into a ring: measuring it to fit your finger, cutting and preparing the metal, soldering the ends together, shaping it round, and giving it a final polish.

Most people who come have never made jewellery before. I'll demonstrate each stage step-by-step and be on hand whenever you need me, so you always know exactly what to do and can relax and enjoy the process.

This is a lovely place to start if you've always fancied trying silversmithing. Most people are amazed by what they achieve in just a few hours, and it's not unusual to hear "I can't believe I made that". There’s just something different about wearing something you made with your own hands.

"This was a lovely experience. Jude was so warm and welcoming. She adjusted her pace to suit the small group. She was incredibly kind in giving some tips to someone in the group who was learning to make jewellery herself. The workshop was organised and well laid out. Most of all, I am so delighted with the ring. I was making the ring to celebrate a personal achievement, and I couldn't be more pleased with it. I will definitely be back to make another soon!"
