Silver Clay Course - Student Pieces!

I'm so proud of these fabulous pendants my students made today.
One had tried silver-clay and been disappointed with the results, while the other two had never had a go at all...... So these stunning pieces are their first pendants, their first time soldering, first stone setting, first use of LOS patina and first time using UV resins!! They worked really hard and learnt lots very quickly.

I'm already looking forward to the 28th June, when I'll be introducing a new course which will concentrate on setting glass into silver clay & adding colour.

  1. These are just gorgeous, very inspiring to those that haven't tried PMC. I have worked with PMC for about a year now and I still think it's magic how you can turn clay into pure silver. Great job, teacher!

  5. These are brilliant. Well done all. I must find a starter kit (any suggestions) and a course near me (Surrey/Hants borders?).

    "You would do well young Padawan" lol ;0)

    Sharon silverclay.co.uk sell a "charm kit" if you order that and a tissue blade it will give you a good start (you also need a gas hob or camping stove to use it)

    I'll have a look for Surrey/Hants teachers for you
