Can anyone recommend a good weekend workshop for jewellery making in Dublin?
One of my hobbies is making jeweller using semi-precious stones and silver wire. I’d like to up my skills and do a few workshops or a course at weekends in wirework. I already worked out the basics myself but I’d like to get a truly professional finish on my pieces.
I’d also like to learn how to use crimps and tigertail as I find stringing beads so finicky to finish. I tend to make necklaces using the rosary technique as I find it easier to bend wire than to knot string neatly, but it would be really handy to be able to string and crimp too! Anyone done any workshops/courses in Dublin? If not, I’m interested to hear about your jewellery making anyhow as it’s a lovely craft.
