The Mid Cornwall School of Jewellery. They do a course on lampworking which I really want to try out. The trouble is the course I fancy is either in January, so I need to get my skates on, or November. Has any one tried this or is familiar with the establishment?

I don't know much about this Jamanda but my sister has just started doing this and bought some equipment. She really enjoys it plus, she spends a fortune on beads and this way she knows the jewelery she makes will be "one offs". If it's something you really fancy doing you'll kick yourself if you have to wait till November so, hopefully someone on here might be able to give you feedback about this school. Smile

Sorry Jamanda, I don't know anything about them. Waiting 'till November is an awful long time to wait!

I won't wait until November. I thought I'd see if anyone here or on DS knew anything helpful, but if not I'll try and book on the January course anyway. Knowing my luck they'll be booked up and I'll have to go up country.

Kathy - Do you know where your sister bought her supplies from? I thought I wouldn't buy anything until I'd been on a course as there might be advice given.

I'll check with her Jamanda, I know she buys a lot of stuff from Ebay. She made her purchases after doing a jewellery course at the local college so perhaps better to wait till you do yours. They should be able to give advice and might be able to recommend suppliers. Smile

Here is a picture (courtesy of Leonie doing all the hard work) of a necklace I made with some of the beads that I would like to learn to make.
