Pendant *included
Flowers are made in to a pendant by adding a 4mm jump ring to the top.
The jump ring may not fit on to your existing chain if the clasp is too large. To have the flower fitted to your chain or a smaller jump ring, you can post your chain to me or bring it to the event.

Ring *extra
Handmade in silver to any ring size.
Small flowers - 1.8mm round wire
Large flowers - 3.5mm rectangle wire
You can measure up at the workshop if you are unsure of your finger size.

Brooch *included
A 6cm silver brooch pin and end cap.

Chain *extra
I recommend the below necklace lengths and styles but other options are available.
Small flowers - 16"-18" trace
Large flowers - 24"-26" oval belcher

It is most straightforward if everyone carves the same flower at scheduled themed workshops.

If you would like to carve a particular flower then it is possible to book a group private workshop in my home studio.

Wax carving isn’t particularly messy but probably best not to wear your glad rags - aprons are available if you wish to wear one.

If you have long hair it is best to wear it tied back.

Sight:

If you usually wear glasses for reading or close up work then it is best to bring them with you.

I have two magnifier lamps and one headband magnifier, these are useful for detailed work.

Nails:

This style of wax carving is fiddly and we use our fingers tips for forming, you may struggle with some stages if you have nail extensions.

Everyone is welcome. The workshop is suitable for complete beginners.

No carving or jewellery making experience neccessary.

We will make the flowers one stage at a time following a demonstration and talk through.

I will be hovering nearby ready to help at any point to guide you through the whole process.

The flowers are created with sheet wax using the below processes:

Cutting - with a scalpel, to cut petals.

Melting - with a flame and carving tools, to shape the wax.

Forming - with your hands, to press, mould and roll.
