💍 Create Your Ring 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family-Friendly Fun 🎨 Expert Guidance 💪 Skill-Building Experience

ABOUT THE COURSE

Can teens and tweens create beautiful, handcrafted jewellery in just one day with no previous experience?

At SquarePeg Studios, they absolutely can!

"It was great to follow the journey of a piece of metal into a fully-fledged one-of-a-kind piece of jewellery!"

Spend a day in a real jewellery studio creating your own handcrafted jewellery. Guided by contemporary jeweller Emily Copp, students will learn traditional metalworking techniques while making their choice of an open band ring, cuff bracelet or pendant to take home.

Based on our sold-out Australian National Maritime Museum workshop, this fun and hands-on school holiday experience has been specially designed for young makers aged 12–17 years. Students will explore creativity, craftsmanship and design in a supportive studio environment while learning genuine jewellery-making skills.

Responding to the success of our museum workshops, we've created a format that is both accessible and engaging, allowing students to complete a beautiful finished piece in just one day.

All tools and materials are provided, including copper for practice and sterling silver for the final piece.

As this workshop takes place in a professional jewellery studio using specialist tools and equipment, participants must be accompanied by a responsible carer aged 16 years or over. Carers are welcome to accompany students at no charge or purchase a discounted Bring a Buddy ticket if they'd like to create their own jewellery alongside them.

WHAT STUDENTS LEARN

  • Design and planning for a handcrafted jewellery piece.

  • Texture metal using a rolling mill with leaves, fabrics, papers, hand-cut stencils and other interesting materials.

  • Traditional jewellery-making techniques including measuring, sawing, shaping, filing and forming.

  • Professional finishing techniques to refine and polish their completed jewellery.

WHAT STUDENTS MAKE

Choose one of the following sterling silver jewellery projects:

  • Open band ring

  • Cuff bracelet

  • Pendant

Each student will take home a unique handcrafted piece they have designed and made themselves.

I went to the workshop with my 13 year old grandson and we both had a fantastic day. Emily is a skilled, patient and lovely teacher who guided us through the process of design, use of different tools to create markings and form the ring, soldering and finishing. We were both inspired to learn more and really happy with our rings. The venue is great also.
