“I have no idea what to make. Help!”

“I have no idea what to make. Help!”

Our most frequently asked questions usually come back to two things:

  1. Do I need experience in making jewellery to attend Silver Works classes? (in case you’re wondering, no, not at all!)
  2. I have no idea what to make. Help! I need some inspiration. 

Today we’re here to answer the latter. First up, check out our instagram – we share lots of insights into our workshops, including some of the beautiful creations other customers have made in the workshop or using the Ring Carving Kit. You can also browse Pinterest for design ideas. 

To show what is possible using our Ring Carving Kits and through attending our workshops, we wanted to share with you some of the creations people have already made using it.

The beauty of jewellery making is that no two pieces are identical – what you create is a true reflection of you, your style and your hands!  You can now check out some of the rings made using the Kit in our Silver Works Hall of Fame below.

With the easy step by step tutorials included in the kit and workshops you will learn everything you need to know about the basics of wax carving. Those who have done it already have left glowing reviews! See what they have been saying below:

“A novel and delightful way to explore and express your creativity in a lock down. The kit is comprehensive and the tutorials are detailed and easily accessible online for whenever suits your timetable. Great support and fast responses to enquiries. I can’t wait to attend a class in person to expand my skills. Highly recommended.” – Joseph Bonham

“Great Lockdown experience learning and working from home. Took me a while to shape the wax to my design but good fun trying it and my ring has turned out beautifully. Great conversation piece and I’m planning to make some nice presents.” – J.S.

Explore our Wedding Rings Workshop

As tradition goes, we know that engagement rings tend to steal the show when it comes to wedding bling. There’s the sparkle of the ring itself, closely followed by the romantic tale of the proposal. 

However, today we’re here to propose a toast in honour of the wedding ring itself – an often overlooked but equally important part of the big day and a lifelong physical representation of your union. 

Why not double up on the romance by crafting your own wedding rings with your partner?

Our 4 hour Wedding Rings workshop allows you to create something truly unique with the guidance of our expert tutors on hand to support you throughout the creation of your bespoke wedding rings – even if you have zero jewellery making experience. 

Within this post we’re covering some of our most frequently asked questions about the wedding rings workshop. If we haven’t answer your question here, please feel free to get in touch with us here. You can find all the details about the workshop itself here too.
