This workshop is suitable for beginners with no previous jewellery making experience. The workshop allows participants to learn basic techniques and skills to create their own silver torque bangle.
During this workshop you'll learn techniques such as texturing, stamping, shaping and forming to create your own torque style oval bangle.
These techniques will be practised roughly in copper to allow for experiment and play before going on to create one bangle in sterling silver.
Places on this workshop are limited to eight people to allow individuals sufficient time with Lindsay to assist and oversee each project.
