DESIGN AND MAKE A PENDANT IN PEWTER – 1 DAY WORKSHOP
This workshop goes through some of the basic principles of casting in pewter, initially carving a wax pattern for a pendant and then using this to make a two-part rubber mould.
You will then pour pewter into your mould and cast a pewter piece, which will be cleaned up and polished ready to wear.
It is not necessary to have any experience either working with metal or carving the wax as Fleur will guide you through the whole process step by step. This is a great opportunity to experience working with pewter and creating your own unique piece.
For groups of 2- 4 people I can book a date that will suit you, this can be a great way for you and your friends to learn a new skill and have some fun at the same time. I am happy to run these workshops week days or weekends.
What is included: All materials needed throughout the course will be included and complimentary tea, coffee and biscuits.
Price: £155
Time 10am – 4.30pm
Clothing: As students will be working with molten metal for safety reasons I do ask that everyone wears a long sleeve top and not wear open shoes. It can also get a bit dusty so students may want to bring an apron or wear old clothes.
Gift vouchers are also available if you are looking to buy a workshop day as a gift.
“We had such a wonderful day on Fleur’s pewter jewellery-making course. Fleur was incredibly knowledgeable, patient and generous with her expertise, and made the whole experience both fascinating and enjoyable.
It was so interesting to learn about pewter and the jewellery-making process, and Fleur really inspired us to be creative and have a go. We were amazed at what we were able to achieve in just one day and came away with pieces of jewellery that we were genuinely proud of.
It was a brilliant, hands-on day, and Fleur created such a lovely atmosphere. We left feeling inspired, accomplished and keen to carry on creating. We would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in learning something new and having a really enjoyable day!“
