Join me for a fun, creative day using magical silver clay to make a beautiful and unique rockpool pendant with a piece of sea glass.
You will learn how to make a bezel to hold your sea glass and attach it to your pendant. You will then learn how to roll, texture, mould, and form the clay to make tiny shells and pebbles to embellish your pendant. The design choices are all yours, so you can leave the background plain, add texture, and add as few or as many embellishments as you wish, making your pendant uniquely yours. If you wish, you may oxidise your pendant to bring out the details and finally give it a good polish.
You are welcome to bring your own sea glass if you have collected any yourself, but ideally, the piece should be about 1 cm in diameter, thin, and flat. If it isn’t suitable, you may not be able to use it at the workshop. If you don’t have your own, a selection of sea glass will be available to use.
This is slightly more advanced than my usual beginner’s workshop, so places will be limited to 3 to ensure plenty of one-to-one attention and plenty of time to finish your piece.
