Jewellery Making Experience Days: This jewellery making class is the perfect Mother's Day gift, and a wonderful way to spend some quality time together being creative. During the 1.5 hour glass charm design workshop, you will learn the basics of working with glass to make delicate, colourful beads. After learning about the different coloured glass and their properties, you will spend half an hour designing your own bead. Once you have finished designing your jewellery, it will be made in front of you, using a blowtorch. Anyone over the age of 14 can even get involved in this part of the jewellery making! As a special treat for mothers and daughters, a duplicate of both designs will be made for you, so that you can have your own design as well as your mothers/daughters on the tube bracelet that you select during the experience. You will begin the jewellery making experience with a short talk on how the glass charm beads are made, the different colours of glass, and their properties. Moving on to the practical stuff, you will then sped half an hour designing your very own glass charm bead, so get creative and make a bead that reflects you! After the beads have been designed, they will be created in front of you, with a blowtorch. Those over the age of 14 can try making their own bead. Before leaving, you will choose the coloured tube bracelet that you would like to attach your bead to. As the beads need to be kilned, you will not be able to take them with you on the day, however they will be sent to you in the post, on your chosen colour bracelet. You will also receive a duplicate of each others designed bead, as an extra special memento of a wonderful day!
