This workshop is open to beginners as well as intermediate-level students, so you can take your time and learn at your own pace. You'll be guided through all the steps of making jewellery from scratch, so you'll leave feeling confident in your skills whatever level you work at.

We even provide the accommodation and endless tea and coffee to keep you refreshed throughout the retreat. The week will be an immersive experience that helps you feel like part of our family here at Gifted Crafts.

If you're an intermediate silver clay artist and want to take your skills to the next level, Advanced Silver Jewellery Workshop is for you. In this workshop, you'll learn how to make rings, filigree, and mirror-polished pieces with advanced techniques. You'll leave with a set of quality products that will show your true talent as an artist. And best of all? You'll be able to use these skills on more complex projects later on!

Find out how to laser cut and engrave with Gifted Crafts Co. We’ve been lasering for 12 years now and have the experience to show for it. We use both kit style laser engravers and professional CO2 laser cutters throughout our workshop, so you can try lots of materials and techniques in both 2D and 3D. Our one-to-one sessions are designed to help you get started on your own projects, even if you don’t know anything about lasering. We’ll teach you the software, cover what materials work best for different techniques, and give you ideas for things to try out at home or in your studio.

Are you a design or art student? Do you want to make sure your portfolio is up to the standard of the best? Join us for our portfolio workshop! We'll walk you through the process of developing an effective and eye-catching portfolio, and give you some insider tips on how to get noticed in the industry. You'll leave with a well-presented portfolio, an action plan that will help you get into the program of your choice, and interview practice so you can nail that all-important interview. We've got over 20 years of experience teaching design and art students, so we know exactly what it takes to produce work that stands out from the crowd. Our workshops are designed for people who want to know how to prepare for interviews, how to use their portfolio as a marketing tool for their own products, and how to present their work in the best possible light. Our company founder has interviewed for both jobs and degree level courses. She knows what questions they're going ask—and she knows exactly how to answer them!

Explore the rich textures and colours that come from this classic form of printing and get inspired by classic design styles. Learn to set type with a composing stick or alternatively you could create larger scale pieces that are more fluid and decorative. Leave with short print runs of each project and a fab new skill.
