Silver clay is an amazing form of silver that can be shaped with your fingers like clay. You will learn the basic techniques of how to roll, cut, texture and finish the clay. By the end of the course, you will have designed and created two or three finished pieces of real silver jewellery, such as a pendant and earrings or two necklaces and a brooch.
You can leave wearing your pieces, or have them boxed and ready to give as truly personal presents for friends and family. What could be better, a fun creative day out and putting ticks on your christmas gift list !
You will also have gained the skills and confidence to continue creating designs in silver clay on your own at home. No previous experience is necessary.
