Tell me about it

Hurrah, it’s our Christmas silver clay workshop! This is a relaxing and rewarding class that’s festive, fun, and a wee bit therapeutic. It’s not quite as intense as our full silver clay class, meaning it’s perfect for making beautiful wee bespoke yuletide themed trinkets that can be hung on the tree, attached to stockings, or wrapped up as a gift.

Working alongside our fabulous tutors, you will spend a few hours in Drew’s grotto getting busy with this fantastic technique.

Can I do this class?

This can be for complete beginners and also those with some experience… get ready to trim your tree and jingle your bells!

What happens?

We’ll introduce you to the magic of silver clay, before letting you loose with our festive themed moulds so you can get on with creating these lovely wee decorations.

Do I need to bring anything?

You don’t need to bring anything with you as we will provide all the equipment and materials needed. Everyone will have their own bench with access to all the tools required to make the decorations.

Please wear long hair tied up [or bring something to do so], don’t wear open-toed shoes and keep loose-fitting clothing to a minimum.

If you need glasses to see things close up, please bring them with you. Making jewellery is fiddly!

We will provide Christmassy nibbles and drinks! Oh, and don’t forget our ultimate Christmas playlist.
