Polymer Clay Jewellery - Live Online - 1 Day - One to One

Description

This workshop is such fun. Working with Polymer Clay is affordable and easy to do at home so it's the perfect way to start a new hobby or business. The material is versatile and accessible for all ages and experience. You can make beautifully simple pieces or develop onto intricate, more complex designs. During the live online workshop you will explore rolling, cutting, forming and moulding the clay. You'll then move onto baking and finishing the pieces with jewellery findings and adhesives. You'll be able to make a number of pieces which could include pendants, earrings, rings, keyrings and more. You can then progress to some more complex techniques including decorative slabs, canes and gold leaf. Then using your new skills to turn these into jewellery or even a small plate or bowl. You can do the workshop in one session (with some breaks!) or split it into 2 shorter sessions, whichever works best for you. Please allow 7 days from booking before your desired workshop date to ensure your kit reaches you in time. This workshop is a guaranteed one to one session so that I can tailor the workshop to your interests and needs as an individual. You can achieve so much this way. Develop skills to start a new business, take up a new hobby or craft for the joy of it … I can ensure the day progresses the way you want it to. A one-night self-catering stay is available for free with this booking in our onsite retro caravan (subject to availability). Please enquire. All courses, workshops and kits come with free support afterwards. Email me or arrange a video call. I love to see what my students and fellow crafters are up to and really enjoy answering questions or helping if I can. So any booking isn’t just for the day it’s the start of a crafting friendship! I do my very best to keep all my listings up to date with availability.

Rachel Ellen – Craftsperson & Tutor Trained as a graphic designer, I spent 15 years teaching Art & Design and Design Technology, sharing my love of creativity with students of all ages. Craft has always been my passion, not just for the joy it brings but for the skills, confidence, and sense of accomplishment it fosters. Now based in the beautiful Shropshire hills, I feel privileged to welcome crafters from across the UK and beyond to my studio—and now online—to explore traditional and contemporary craft techniques. My teaching is all about supporting each person’s creative journey in a way that works for them, focusing on skill development, sustainability, and making long-lasting pieces. Thoughtful material choices and minimising waste are at the heart of my practice, ensuring that craft remains both joyful and responsible for generations to come.
