Jewellery Classes

Athene runs popular classes from her studio workshop.

Our classes are aimed at beginners looking for an introduction to the basics of beading, or for honing and developing skills for those more experienced.

Scroll through to see a selection of the jewellery made on past classes.

We have two workshop tiers to choose from:

Our Standard Workshops

There will be an introduction to beading techniques and the opportunity to make a stretchy bracelet with semi-precious stones, you will then move on to make a pair of earrings.

The beginners workshop is approximately 1.5 hours long. Please note that we do sometimes go slightly over this time, depending on the group dynamic.

£55 per person, with a maximum group size of 8.

Bells & Whistles Workshops

Starting with an introduction to beading techniques and the opportunity to make a stack of 3 stretchy bracelets with semi-precious stones, you will then be able to make a pair of drop earrings and go on to learn how to make a pair of our signature waterfalls using some of our special precious stones including rubies, diamonds and sapphires.

This workshop is approximately 3 hours long. Please note that we do sometimes go slightly over this time, depending on the group dynamic. This workshop is suitable for people who have reasonable dexterity, are creative, and would like to develop their skills.

£165 per person, with a maximum group size of 6. All materials are provided.

We are fully insured.

Please contact us if you have any questions at as@athenesholl.co.uk

If none of the dates suit you, no problem, ping us a message and we can work out a session to suit all parties. 

Amethyst and freshwater pearl bracelets

Amethyst bracelets. Amethyst is reputed to be meditative and calming, promoting balance and peace.

This design is deceptively simple, but easy enough to create once you have mastered the knotting technique.

Pretty Pearl Drop Earrings

 

Simple to make once you master the wire wrapping technique.

Love potato peacock purple pearls with sterling silver handmade bobble wires, on a sterling silver hook.

 

Turquoise Waterfalls

Make a pair of waterfalls as a part of our bells & whistles workshops.

Each element is threaded onto our handmade sterling silver bobbled ear wires which are attached to an open navette link chain.

Each stone hangs individually from the earrings so they spiral around the centre chain, each cluster earring is the mirror image of the other.
