DESCRIPTION

Ready to add bold colour to your jewellery skills?

In this hands-on beginner workshop, you’ll learn how to fuse vibrant glass enamel onto copper using a torch. It’s fast, fiery, and incredibly satisfying. You’ll explore colour layering, sifting, and surface effects while creating sample tiles to build confidence — then move on to finished pieces.

By the end of the day, you’ll complete a pair of enamel earrings and/or a pendant (time permitting), finished with sterling silver findings — ready to wear or gift.

This class is perfect for beginners, makers wanting to expand their skills, or anyone curious about working with colour and flame. Small class sizes mean plenty of guidance and individual attention.

Spend a day creating, experimenting, and walking away with vibrant handmade jewellery — no experience required.
