"My husband and I received a workshop day with Bridget as a wedding gift. We designed and made a pendant and bracelet. Bridget is lovely, patient and very helpful providing her wealth of knowledge. We did not expect to be so involved which was a lovely surprise and both came away with a sense of real achievement and two beautiful items. We highly recommend a day with Bridget making a bespoke piece of jewellery. I cannot wait to attend another workshop! Thank you Bridget!"

"Just arrived back home after spending the day with Bridget in her jewellery studio. It was a very interesting and fun day. I liked the fact that I could choose whatever piece of jewellery I wanted, and after discussing the basic design we worked out the details together, which ensured that my piece had enough challenges to teach me the basics of silversmithing. Bridget was very patient and very easy to talk to, I learnt a lot today and am very happy. I thouroughly recommend spending a day with Bridget to anybody interested in jewellery design and silversmithing"

"Yesterday my daughter and I had the absolute pleasure of spending a day with Bridget. We were complete novices in the art of silversmithing but Bridget's confident approach soon made us relax and begin to explore what was actually possible during our day. We both had ideas of what we hoped to achieve but had no idea whether any of it was possible. Bridget approached our ideas with enthusiasm and confidence and guided us gently through the processes required to create our end results which incorporated ideas from Bridget that enhanced our creations in an imaginative and creative way. We would both thoroughly recommend Bridget to anyone who would like to either dip a toe into the art of silversmithing or would like to improve and hone their skills. Tip top tutor!"

"I have just spent the most fantastic day learning new skills, creating jewellery from scratch and having so much fun under the watchful and expert tutelage of the wonderfully talented Bridget from Bridget Bradshaw Designs. Individual attention entirely geared to what I wanted to learn at my pace, but the day flew by. Lovely company and a lovely lady. Will definitely return to build on what I've learned and tackle some of the 1,000,000 things I now know there are to learn in this fascinating and incredibly creative industry. Best day out I've had in a long time and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone. 10/10. Thank you, Bridget."

"What a fabulous Silver Jewellery Workshop. I can strongly recommend Bridget's day course. Before the course took place Bridget asked me to think about what I would like to achieve and think about the item/s of Jewellery that I would like to make, which was amazing as it gives you ultimate freedom and creativity - plus plenty of time to make sketches (even though mine were pretty bad). So when I turned up for the day we had a great starting point. Bridget has an amazing knowledge of her craft and is a very welcoming and lovely person. I immediately felt at ease and it was super interesting to learn about all of the different processes that go into jewellery making. I initially started using tools and techniques on copper to get to grips with the saw and hammers and then we worked on my designs to then transpose on to Sterling Silver. I came away with a great understanding and appreciation in the craft and felt that my teacher was a amazing fountain of knowledge. I would love to go again and try to evolve my designs. Thank you Bridget!"

It has been a really interesting way to learn new skills, get creative and make a unique item for yourself, partner, family member or friend . It will also make it all the more memorable for the person you give it to, adding that personal touch.

"I had a fantastic day making a pendant with Bridget. Before the course Bridget was very clear about what the day would entail, and ensuring that she had everything needed to make my design. Bridget is a dedicated teacher and really took the time to talk through options for shaping and finishing the silver, and showed lots of her own work to demonstrate techniques. I would really recommend this course. Thank you for a lovely day Bridget."

"I had a great day with Bridgett. I was a complete novice when it came to silver smithing, every step was explained clearly and enable me to leave with a piece of jewellery that I can wear immediately. Bridgett has a lovely personality and is a wealth of knowledge and useful information regarding her craft, plus so much more. Bridgett is a great designer and teacher and I would highly recommend booking some time to learn a new skill or build on previous knowledge."

"Bought a friend a voucher for a silver jewellery making day with Bridget. We went together. Bridget was extremely patient, calm and made the day so very enjoyable. Bridget showed us both varying techniques involved in making our two, very personal and unique pieces of jewellery. Couldn't recommend Bridget enough and we will certainly be going again in tje near future to complete another piece."

"One Day Silver Jewellery Course with Bridget Bradshaw. I booked this course for my boyfriends Christmas present. I had concerns initially as my boyfriend is a Carpenter & builds custom Harley Davidson motorbikes. So I needed a jewellery course that would be rewarding for someone who had welding experience and was interested in heavy machinery & hardy chunky bikers jewellery. This was the most perfect day for both of us. I couldn't imagine a better experience or outcome. Bridget is so friendly, welcoming, hospitable & an excellent, patient teacher. We both got so much out of our day course as well as a custom designed piece of jewellery. My boyfriend was also able to alter jewellery of his own that needed refreshing. The workshop is fantastic with everything you could ever dream up to design! Bridget will try to make it possible or suggest similar to get a desired result. This is one of the best gifts I have ever brought anyone, you will get so much out of this experience. Bridget is wonderful & very talented. A huge Thank you to Bridget. HH X"

Kathryn reviewed: One day silver jewellery designing and making workshop

"A real privelege to spend a day in Bridget's company. I thoroughly enjoyed learning some basic skills from someone who is obviously skilled in design and jewellery making and a very generous teacher. I particularly enjoyed seeing the different things she has produced as examples of the types of skills I was being introduced to. I came away with some lovely pieces that I will treasure and a lot of different experience for the relatively small time I was with her. A lovely day I would thoroughly recommend!"
