Workshops
Looking for something different to do at a celebration with friends and family, a birthday party, or a hen party perhaps?
A bespoke Billibob Designs ‘silver clay’ jewellery making class may just be the answer. It’s a great way of spending time with friends and family and then come away with stunning personalised fine silver jewellery made by yourself.
Each workshop is tailor made for your event and can be either a morning, afternoon, evening or a full day and I will travel to your event. I like to keep classes small, up to six people, so that I can give a high level of support to everyone.


What does the workshop include?
Each workshop will include:
- an outline of what ‘silver clay’ is.
- health and safety
- how to roll, texture and shape the clay
- how to dry and refine the clay prior to firing
- polishing and finishing the fired piece.
All the tools are provided including 7g/10g of 999 fine silver clay for a half/full day session, and Sterling silver findings (necklace chain, jump rings, etc) to finish your jewellery.
What could you make?
The possibilities are endless, it could be a charm for a necklace, a pendant, earrings with each of you making a different design using different shapes, moulds, and textures.
What about making ‘matching’ earrings, same shape but different textures for bridesmaids, or charms for a bride’s charm bracelet or bangle, name tag necklaces connecting a group of friends, or simply a ‘free for all’.
All you need to bring is your creativity and ideas and I will teach you the skills you need to make your fine silver piece of jewellery. But don’t worry if you aren’t sure what to do, I can provide lots of ideas!


What does it cost?
- £50 per person for an AM or PM (half day).
- £65 per person for an evening session.
- £110 per person for a full day (with extra clay).
- Minimum of 4 attendees is required.
- My travel costs are free if the event is within the West Midlands, otherwise you will be advised of travel costs when we discuss your event.
I can also offer 1:1 private tuition in my home studio in Solihull, West Midlands, a fun and relaxed environment where we work at your pace learning all about silver clay and the techniques needed to make any pieces of jewellery that you have in mind.
Private tuition at £150 per day, excluding clay that you can purchase on the day.
Subsequent days will be £125 (excluding clay), if booked before or on the first day.
