Hands On Jewelry Making Workshops for Everyone.

  • The Complete Grit Workshop Series

    My workshops are designed to help you learn step by step, building your skills as you go. For the best experience, I recommend taking the Ring Making, Pendant Making and Cuff Making workshops. This way, you’ll keep learning by adding new skills slowly while building onto the old ones. You really only need a few building blocks to get started!
