Platina Jewellery Workshops 

AS well as weekly classes we hold one day workshops. We had 4 lovely ladies for a fun day, all making pendants. The one day sessions are full on busy, but always sociable, we are in at 9.30 until 5 pm with just a quick 20 minute break for lunch before we are back on it!
I am always amazed by the different designs that everyone comes up with, even though they all have the same brief.


The day begins with a cutting session, practising piercing out copper to get to grips with the saw frame. Students are given a sheet of design ideas to use, or to give them a starting point for inspiring their own design. 







We run one day workshops throughout the year, but also regular weekly classes. The Thursday evening classes are popular so we are just starting a trial evening course on a Tuesday 7-9pm starting in June.

It always amazes me how so many different designs are produced by the students and how inspired it keeps me too!


Please get in touch if you would like to join any of our courses. Email louiseplatina@gmail.com for more information.
