Pure Silver Pebble Pendant Jewelry Workshop Experience Melbourne

Create a Pebble for your person



2.5 hours Class size 1 to 5 guests

$120 (Afterpay available)


Have you heard of Pebbling?
"It’s the penguin equivalent of gifting a box of chocolates.
“On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me, the best pebble out there they could see.”
Finding the right gift at Christmas can be a panic-inducing experience. Will they like it? Do they already have one? Is this the right size and colour?
To avoid the gift-giving grudge this year, we recommend swapping out your friends and family for a colony of penguins! All they want for Christmas is you… to bring them pebbles!
Gentoo penguins know a good pebble when they see one. Scooping them up in their beaks, they carry them to their partner; a gift that acknowledges the relationship between the two" - BBCEarth
Come and create a one-of-a-kind pure silver pebble to gift or keep!
You will be guided through the process of using metal clay (what the heck is metal clay, I hear you ask!?...well it's insane and amazing! Tiny particles of silver are suspended in organic matter and can be moulded, folded, pressed, rolled...into anything you want. It then goes through a process of either being torch-fired or kiln-fired, and all the organic matter burns away to leave solid silver!) We will shape and finesse our pebbles before firing and finishing with a wash, buff, and polish. Pebbles can then be added to a 925 silver chain or bracelet.
Get your Besties together and Pebble!

I've lived in the Beautiful Dandenong Ranges for nearly 20 years, there has always been a free artistic spirit in the hills, and I really wanted to create a space that could foster that and share it with the wider community.
I am one of those 'lots of fingers, in lots of pies' type of person! and have loved the journey of learning many skills over my 25+ years as an artist. Hence why the workshop offers a variety of fun skills to try.
In Metal clay jewellery making you will learn about the various types of clay and metals, and techniques to create unique one of a kind pieces with semi precious stones.
you will be taken through the process from raw clay, firing, and polishing and finishing.
The printmaking workshops are such a great way to have a girl date or spend a Saturday arvo creating contemporary images which you will be so in love with you will want to frame and hang.
I am also in the process of developing a stained glass/fused glass sun catcher workshop... so watch this space!
I really want to offer classes which will arm my students with the knowledge to be able to take this new skill and be able to create at home with limited materials.
I have been running my OOAK online art business but really miss the face to face interaction with students.
I hold a BA Degree in Textile Art from Winchester school of Art, UK, and I have also studied at MICA college, USA, and am currently about to undertake my certification in Arts Therapy.
