WORKSHOPS
A day with me in my cosy workshop, making silver jewellery is a proper fun, absorbing and productive day out. You don’t need any experience. I will give you as much or as little help as you need.
​
PRICING - £140 for the first person and £70 for eah aditional person.. This includes enough silver for earrings or a ring (approx. 8 gms). I provide additional silver if you want to make a few pieces, as some people do. Two people works best to get lots done, but I am happy to take up to four people, if required.

HOW IT WORKS

Routine Meet at my Ditchling Common studio at 10.30 for tea and to decide what to make over coffee and croissants.
Work in the studio until lunch time.
Lunch with a glass of wine is included. Dietary preferences catered for.
Back to work to finish up..
Tea and finalise at about 2.30 whilst your work is polishing in my industrial machine.
It only remains to find a beautiful box for your silver and take your photo. You will have made a beautiful piece of silver – maybe more!!!

A day in the workshop is a fantastic gift – one you can both give and benefit by.

TESTIMONIALS
I'm lucky to find that I often develop wonderful relationships with my handmade silver customers. Here is what some of them have to say about my silver making days:
"Thank you so much for our day silversmithing. It truly surpassed our expectations. I can not believe the fantastic quality of our finished items. Your gentle support and guidance lead to items to be proud of. Your warmth and hospitality was second to none. I believe the cost to be exceptionally good value. We are definitely coming back for another day."
