Unique Jewellery Making with Lou Nade
Friday 16 January 2026 from 10am to 4pm
In this fun one day workshop, you’ll learn to explore ‘waste’ resources in new ways, culminating in your own piece (or two, or three) of jewellery. Work with reclaimed bicycle parts, o-rings, plastics, string, textile waste and embellishments to create a pendant, brooch, hair pin or bangle.
Choose from a huge variety of reclaimed materials to explore the creativity and fun of jewellery making. Throughout the workshop, Lou will share techniques and examples of how you can create your own unique pieces and support you through the planning, design and creation of each work, with as much or as little hands on support as you prefer.
All materials, embellishments and threads supplied, including enough to take home and continue your work. Feel free to bring along anything from your own collection to include in your creation.
Due to the nature of sourcing reclaimed materials, components and resources for the workshops may vary to the images shown.
