Ceramic Jewellery Making with Mud + Mai

Join artist Josie of Mud + Mai for an afternoon of making beautiful jewellery components - with clay!

We'll start by rolling out slabs of clay, then design and craft bespoke pieces with cutters, creating custom shapes and hand carving. Experiment with textures and colours with a range of glazes.

Make beads, pendands, charms, brooches...

No previous experience necessary, just enthusiasm and a splash of creativity!

Your work will be fired and ready for collection 3 weeks from the workshop date.

*Note, we will only be working with clay, slip and underglaze on the day. Upon collection, some basic hardware (jump rings, earring hooks and badge backs) can be provided. This does not include any further chains, rings or hooks needed to complete your creations, but advice on procuring this can be provided in the workshop.
