Make Your Own Beaded Pearl Jewellery Workshop @ Native, Bankside | August 18th, 2024

This listing is for one ticket to my Make Your Own Beaded Pearl Jewellery workshop, taking place on the 18th of August, 2024, from 11-1:30pm. The workshop will take place at Native Place (Bankside), a beautiful Central London location just minutes from Borough Market (1 Bear Gardens, London, SE1 9ED). 

I like to start my workshops with a short lesson on pearls, including how they are formed and farmed, how to assess pearl quality, and how to tell real from fake pearls. I will then introduce you to the tools and components you'll need, and you'll be able to choose between 14ct gold-filled and 925 sterling silver findings. Next, I will demonstrate how to begin the beading process and guide you step-by-step, going around to each of you individually to make sure everything is done correctly. Once the first step is complete, you'll be able to rummage through a large selection of pearls that I'll bring with me and choose the ones you like best. You'll even be able to prepare a mock-up so that you can picture what the final piece will look like. Once you're done beading (and socialising), I'll teach you how to fasten your piece.

As it is a morning session, coffee, tea, water, and croissants will be provided!

*Limited spaces are available as my workshops only include up to 12 attendees; this is to ensure I can dedicate enough attention to each of you. 

*Please don't worry if you select 'Bracelet' and then change your mind and decide to make a necklace during the workshop; you will be able to pay the price difference (£20) on the day. 

*Please note that this ticket is non-refundable. Nevertheless, if you are no longer able to make it and give me at least 3 days notice, we can move your space forward to a future workshop.
