The photos show Melinda's newest design - the beautiful Gingko Biloba leaf, very popular in jewellery, as well as other crafts. If you prefer a different design ... other shapes and styles will be be available as inspiration too!
Suitable for complete beginners as well as those with some jewellery-making experience, this hands-on workshop is guided by Melinda every step of the way. You'll have access to all the professional tools and equipment used in a traditional silver jewellery studio.
Your finished design will be completely unique to you, and you'll learn a range of essential silver techniques, with guided tuition to scribe shapes on metal, cut out using a jewellers' saw frame, filing smooth edges, texturing with punches, doming - and shaping. You will also solder on your links, earring posts and your shapes together and then complete your pieces finally, with finishing and polishing.
You'll leave with beautiful handcrafted silver jewellery and the skills and confidence to continue your jewellery-making journey.
