General admission

This full-day intermediate workshop is suitable for anyone who has attended our beginners Silver clay taster or Introduction to silver clay jewellery workshops, or has experience of working with metal clay.
On this workshop, taught by Edinburgh&nbsp;jeweller and silver clay specialist Anna Campbell, you will learn the traditional skill of soldering to advance your jewellery-making skills in order to make different types of jewellery including stud earrings and cufflinks.
This is the perfect follow-on&nbsp;to&nbsp;the beginners workshops, and has been requested by our participants! It&rsquo;s also the right workshop for you if you want to make jewellery to sell, or simply wish to make unique pieces&nbsp;for yourself, or as gifts&nbsp;for friends.&nbsp;
We will begin by&nbsp;designing and making&nbsp;stud earrings, cufflinks and a pendant out of silver clay. This part serves as a good recap on what you&rsquo;ve learnt previously.&nbsp;We will spend the majority of our time focussing on the skill of soldering. You will learn:
<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">How to solder earring posts onto earrings to make studs</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">How to solder silver cufflink backs onto your silver clay pieces</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">How to solder a jump ring onto a pendant (instead of drilling a hole)</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Loads of&nbsp;practical hints and tips</li>
</ul>
We will cover two different types of soldering, talk about&nbsp;the equipment and materials you need (not much more than for working with silver clay), troubleshooting and more. You will have plenty of supervised practice, and by the end of the day you should have the confidence and skills you need to start making soldered silver clay jewellery&nbsp;at home.&nbsp;
Detailed&nbsp;notes of the workshop with all the information you need to remember&nbsp;to get going will be emailed to you afterwards.<hr fr-original-style="" style="border-color: var(--border-muted); border-style: solid; clear: both; break-after: page; user-select: none; box-sizing: border-box;">

Master the art of soldering: a jewellery workshop for metal clay artists
Designed for jewellery makers who work with metal clay but haven’t yet ventured into soldering, this full-day workshop is the perfect next step in advancing your skills. 
Originally created by your tutor Anna Campbell, one of the leading metal clay teachers in the UK, for the London Jewellery School, this intermediate course was developed in response to student requests for a follow-up to beginners’ silver clay class, offering a deeper dive into traditional jewellery-making techniques.
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the essential skill of soldering, enabling you to expand your creative possibilities by crafting different types of jewellery, including stud earrings, cufflinks, and pendants. Whether you’re looking to start selling your jewellery, or simply want to create high-quality pieces for yourself or as gifts, this course is tailored to help you achieve your goals.
What you'll learn and create
Design and create with silver clay
As a refresher, we’ll start by designing and crafting stud earrings, cufflinks, and a pendant using silver clay, reminding you of the techniques you’ve already learned (don’t worry if it’s been a while, we’ll cover it step-by-step). 
Soldering techniques
The majority of the day will focus on mastering the art of soldering, where you’ll learn:
How to solder earring posts onto your designs to create studs;
How to solder cufflink backs to your silver clay pieces;
How to solder a jump ring onto a pendant, eliminating the need to drill a hole.
Plus many more tips, including how to make your own pickle (for cleaning metal).
Comprehensive learning experience
We’ll cover two types of soldering, explore the equipment and materials required (which isn’t much more than what you already use for silver clay), and troubleshoot common challenges. You’ll have plenty of supervised practice, and by the end of the day, you’ll feel confident in your ability to solder and take your jewellery-making to the next level - even from home!
What’s included
The cost of the course includes materials worth over £30, such as 10g of silver clay, sterling silver cufflink backs, a pair of stud earrings, and butterflies - everything you need to complete the class. 
This workshop is ideal for anyone who has completed a beginner’s silver clay course or has experience working with metal clay and is ready to advance their skills in the art of jewellery-making.

Earth conscious credentials
We are mindful of the effect we have on the environment, and do our best to minimise our impact.
Silver clay is a material manufactured from 100% recycled silver, a plant-based organic binder and water. The silver is recycled from X rays, the photographic industry, electronics etc. You don’t need a lot of tools and equipment to get started and all pieces made on this workshop can be fired with a crème brûlée torch.
You also take all the lovely products you have created home with you on the day, and workshop correspondence and notes are sent to you electronically.
Favourite feedback
We love to hear what you think about our workshops. Here's a favourite review for Soldering Silver Clay Jewellery.
“Attended the silver clay soldering course with Anna on Sunday and had a blast. SO delighted with the pieces that I made- and that they actually look professional and good enough to give away as gifts. Anna was an extremely patient and attentive teacher and I was astonished at how willing she was to share her professional secrets with attendees- extremely generous. Lunch was fabulous- worth booking for that alone. Highly recommend this really chilled but incredibly creative day.” [Kirsty]

Business Writing 1 Day Workshop in Dunfermline

Business Writing 1 Day Workshop in Edinburgh

In the UK, 25% of people have a disability. This means, on average, 1 in every 4 of your clients, customers or employees will have a disability.
People often underestimate this number because 80% of disabilities are hidden or invisible, meaning you can’t see them. People also often assume that most people with disabilities are pensioners when in fact 80% of people acquire a disability when they are of working age.
This interactive two hour workshop will use the social model of disability as a framework to demonstrate how understanding disability and embracing inclusivity can significantly benefit your business.

Event details:
Date: Thursday 13th March 2025
Time: 12:00pm - 2:00pm
Location: Online (ZOOM)
For: This workshop is for businesses based in North Essex (Braintree, Chelmsford, Colchester, Maldon, and Tendring)

Why disability matters to your business:
The Purple Pound: Disabled people and their families have a substantial spending power – an estimated £274 billion per year in the UK. By making your business accessible and inclusive, you tap into this significant market.
Enhanced brand reputation: Demonstrating a commitment to inclusivity enhances your brand image and attracts people who value social responsibility. 
Attract top talent: A diverse and inclusive workplace attracts and retains skilled employees, giving you a competitive edge in the North Essex job market.
Increased employee morale: When employees feel valued and respected, morale and productivity improve.

In this interactive workshop, you will:
Explore the Social Model of Disability: Understand how societal barriers create disability, not individual impairments.
Identify and address barriers: Explore common barriers faced by disabled people in accessing your products or services, such as inaccessible websites, limited physical access, and inadequate customer service.
Learn inclusive language and terminology and the skills to navigate conversations about disability with greater respect and sensitivity.
Challenge unconscious bias: Examine your own assumptions and biases regarding disability and learn strategies to account for their impact.

Interactive workshop elements will include:
Engaging group discussions: Share experiences and best practices with other business owners.
Case studies: Analyse real-world examples of businesses that have successfully embraced inclusivity.
Q&A sessions: Ask questions and receive expert guidance from the webinar host.

Meet the Host:
Michelle Scicluna - Founder of The Disability Force

Michelle approaches her workshops with compassion, believing that people genuinely want to do the right thing, but often lack the knowledge to be able to do so. This is because historically and as a society, we haven’t done disability particularly well. The key to doing disability better lies in understanding and applying the social model of disability which focuses on removing societal barriers rather than focusing solely on individual impairments.
Michelle shares her own lived experience as a disabled woman to help bring workshops to life. Acquiring a disability in her late 20s, Michelle knows what it was like to live without a disability and then find yourself suddenly navigating life with barriers you didn’t even understand existed.
Michelle now uses her own journey, combined with her expertise as an evidence-based disability and inclusive leadership coach - certified by the University of Cambridge - to help businesses create more inclusive business and workplace practices and policies.
Please let us know if you have any accessibility requirements to help you get the most out of this online workshop and we will do our best to accommodate your needs where we can.

‘Collage is a metaphor for any discovering, gathering ad reweaving of energy bits already formed and present in the universe. A new and personal creation can be made from the ever-present divine chaos of images all around us. Just choose, assemble, name and then inhabit your SoulCollage® cards’
-Seena Frost. Originator/birther of SoulCollage®

When we come together to make SoulCollage® in community, amazing things happen. 
There is a magic in the paradoxes built into this journey  that only requires you coming along with your curiosity and imagination.
No artistic genius recquired whatsoever. Just your presence!

Images have things to say to us. 
They can call us through our hearts, our instinctual knowing, and our open intuitive minds. 
In this sense, images offer us potals and openings to a deep wisdom stream.
All you need to do is be open to the images that are asking for your attention. Then you make a collage, then you listen to what it wants you to know. It is simple, and prodound. 


Saturday offerings of SoulCollage® at The Soul Shed are a new online offering this year, following on from my other online offerings: A three part Soulcollage® primer and SoulCollage®  with a friend. 

This one in March is the first to pair Soulcollage® with the wisdom teachings of the enneagram. It is ideal for both beginners in both who would like to try SoulCollage®and discover the enneagram, and experienced SoulCollagers who would like a boost of community creative energy to their practice !  

Heres what the session will hold for you

Guided breathwork practice
Content to explore the enneagram and orient you to SoulCollage
Time to collage, journal and share within your own comfort.

It also will pair beautifully with the lunar-monthly New Moon offering at The Soul Shed - Sunday Openings. 

If you would like a collaging  pack of 50 mixed images and six blank cards, please add on at the check out! (If you are overseas, I will need to quote and  bill you via paypal for a bit of additional p&p). 

All you will need to bring to the session is your pack, a dry gue stick, scissors, glue and a candle.



Because SoulCollage® is a transformational experience, it is hard to convery this in writing. Here are some things past participants have said: 


"Loved this workshop, from start to finish it made my heart sing.  It was a feast for the soul with words and images that were crafted into something rich and deep for me" -J.E

"What stood out for me was how it just happened ....one thing alchemised into another thing” - L.B

"I'd describe it as a good way to reconnect with your creative side, relax and maybe gain insight into what is happening inside you" - D.F.


I look forward to creating with you soon. If you would like to be on
