The First 'Make Your Own Wedding Rings'

Emma & Mick's rings

Last week, the very first 'Make Your Own Wedding Rings' took place at Coburg House Studios. Hannah Louise Lamb and I were excited and nervous to have Emma Walker, Director of Craftscotland and husband to be, Mick Pritchard, join us in teaching them how to make each other's wedding rings! Here Emma decribes their experience.

Thank you to Emma and Mick for putting their trust in us as tutors, and for being our first ever 'Make Your Own Wedding Rings' couple! You were great!

For more information, visit us at our new website www.makeweddingrings.co.uk

You can also check out our short film on YouTube demonstrating the ring making process below.

About my work

Working with silver and gold, I use my own customized technique of fusion to create textured sheets. I overlap petal like shapes into regular and irregular patterns. By working and forming the metal in various ways, I produce delicate pieces of jewellery resembling flora and fauna. Large neckpieces, brooches and rings are made up of continuous floral and bud clusters, whilst others are constructed of fine sheet layers that glisten and often move when handled or worn.

If you are intersested in any of the pieces shown here or in any post or would like to commission me, you can contact me either by phone or email (details above).
