Taster: Make your own Silver Earrings or Cufflinks

This Taster class takes place on Saturday 17th May 2025, from 10am-5pm.

Learn how to make a pair of silver earrings or cufflinks in our bright and shiny jewellery making workshop in Birmingham. You will learn to make a patterned pair of silver drop earrings, in your own chosen shape and texture. A unique and personalised piece of jewellery for you to wear home at the end of the course or to give away as a gift. In fact, this class would make an amazing gift or experience day!

This jewellery making course is suitable for complete beginners, or those who have attended a jewellery experience day elsewhere. It takes place on a Saturday daytime from 10.00-17.00, with a 1 hour break for lunch and plenty of nice cafes nearby to choose from. Step by step, you will learn texturing, drilling, saw-piercing, filing/buffing, and polishing as you make and finish your earrings. The tutor will make a pair of silver earrings alongside you, and will use their piece to demonstrate each step. There will be the option to upgrade to make a pair of cufflinks instead of earrings for an extra £15 (choose this option by entering your required number of spots in the +£15 box), with the soldering for these done by the tutor – you’ll be shown how, but it’s a tricky soldering job for a first attempt.

You will need to bring your reading glasses, if you wear them, and a notebook and pen.
