Willow Bracelet workshop

Upcycle old jewellery, off cuts of willow and recycled silver to create a bracelet to take home!
Join Anna, an experienced jewellery tutor and withy pot enthusiast, for a fun and creative session where you’ll learn how to craft beautiful bracelets using willow branches, recycled silver and pre-loved jewellery. No prior experience is needed, just bring your enthusiasm and a packed lunch (bringing in old jewellery is optional).
This workshop is perfect for anyone looking to learn basic jewellery making techniques that could also be made from home with a small selection of tools. Along with this you will also learn a little about the wonderful craft of withy pots, a traditional form of crab/lobster pot from around the south west and the touring Withy Lore exhibition that will be on display; which celebrates this beautiful sustainable craft.
Don’t miss out on this opportunity to spend a creative day surrounded by like-minded individuals and wonderful museum artefacts. See you there!
