The Jewellery Classroom

Classes have been running since April 2021 . The studio is in an old stable block at the Manor Rural Business Park in Tur Langton. It’s a lovely space, with views over the fields where you can occasionally spot an alpaca!

It’s a 20 minute drive from the centre of Leicester, with lots of great walks nearby. You could easily make a day of it with lunch at Mint and Ginger across the courtyard from the studio.

The studio is designed for up to 7 people, with workstations fully equipped for each person. There are a range of classes available and most are suitable for beginners. If you have experience you can stretch yourself by making something a bit more complex.

Have a look at the classes available to book, but get in touch if there is something you particularly want to make that isn’t advertised.

Please contact me with any queries. I am happy to discuss bookings and vouchers with you.

 

 

“ I would highly recommend Kirsty’s Spinner Ring workshop.

Kirsty is very friendly and professional and I had a great time creating a fab piece of unique, personal silver jewellery. Excellent value for money.

Thank you Kirsty “”

“ I’d totally recommend a few hours or a whole day making jewellery with Kirsty at her Tur Langton studio. The studio was kitted out with all that was needed to spend a day being creative, Kirsty is a perfect teacher; encouraging and allowing pupils the freedom to do what they wanted to do , but also stepping in for the tricky bits where needed ! I was surprised how professional the finished result (a ring set with a stone I bought) was. I was delighted with the finished result. Thank you Kirsty - I’ll be back !

"I would highly recommend the workshops to anyone,

... from those with creative skills and those (like me) with none!"

“Fantastically organized taster class, each independent work station was fully equipped and Kirsty was very friendly and guided me through making my ring steadily. “”

"Kirsty cannot improve on her teaching skills...

... she was clear, easy to understand and very patient!"

“We all had a fantastic time and Kirsty achieved something wonderful - persuading people who were convinced otherwise that they can be creative. My friends could not praise Kirsty enough. “”
“Kirsty,
I hope this finds you well.
I just wanted to mail a quick written thank you feedback following our session last weekend.
It was joyful 🙂
You allowed the girls an opportunity to explore silversmith process and genuinely engage in the making process with tools and fire (!) in a beautiful, supportive teaching environment.
They loved it.
Your teaching approach was reactive, thoughtful and personalised. Your recognised when the girls struggled, showed them techniques to problem solve and allowed their squeaks of excitement whilst they made wearable art (which their Mothers are now actively trying to appropriate [cue evil laughter from one mum who messaged me to say she was delighted when the rings fit her too - not kidding!])
Thank you for your warm facilitative approach.
We are sure to return to learn more in your glorious surroundings.
Big thanks,
Nikki and Rosalind and friends.
