CLASSES

* Private Tuition Workshops *

 From Beginners Basics to Advanced Techniques

If you can envision it....You can create it


I offer lessons custom designed to suit the individual creative spirit of my clients. Your newly acquired skills will help you achieve a beautiful work of art that you would be proud of.

You are most welcome to bring your own bits and pieces to class. For example, you might have an old piece of jewellery that you wish to transform into something new.

Please arrive a few minutes earlier on the first visit – a cup of coffee always goes down well and it gives us an opportunity to get to know each other a little before class.

What I need to know before you come to class

* Have you made jewellery before?

* Do you have a specific technique or design in mind?

This gives me an idea of how to structure your class to make it enjoyable within your current skill level.

If you love a design , but have never done wire work before I do suggest you do a custom tailored to your needs basic techniques class with me : with that said I will only focus on the basic skills required for you to comfortably manage the desired design you wish to make in the end.

If this is a new venture for you, and you would like to create an item to take home within the hour, I suggest you start with a pair of earrings. Many basic and very necessary techniques are used to create a pair of earrings. These techniques are also used in larger projects which can be attempted when you become more confident.  The ‘Basic Wire Techniques’ class is also a great entry into the art of jewellery making.

Tuition Fees

Single person: $30 an hour.

Group of 3-4:  $25 an hour per person. 

Please note that there is an additional charge for any beads, wire and findings used during a lesson.


Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes.

Art is knowing which ones to keep.

I will book you in  once your booking has been confirmed.

You are welcome to book 1, 2, 3 or 4 hours with me at a time.
@ $30 per hour. Should you require an 1.5h it will cost $45 for eg.

  • If you book a 3 - 4 hour session with me a deposit of $60 will be required.
  • Any Cancellations need to be made 24 hours before your class time.
  • If  "there is a no show " please understand that you booked a class time which someone else really wanted and I therefore charge you 50% charge of the hours you booked. (if you canceled your class with me  in a reasonable time frame this charge does not apply)
