Kokoni Creative Workshops Newsletter - Hi from Nic!

Kokoni Creative Workshops Newsletter: January 2025 It has been a wonderfully brisk start to 2025, and I’m thrilled to welcome so many of you into the world of silver jewellery making. From gift voucher recipients to those embarking on a new hobby or even a jewellery-making business, it’s been an absolute joy to meet so many fantastic people at Kokoni Towers. Your continued support means the world to me, and as a one-woman business being able to make a living doing something I truly love is something I never take for granted. For those of you considering taking the leap into jewellery making, here’s a roundup of upcoming workshops, dates for your diary, and a little inspiration to get you started! Upcoming Workshops Beginner-Friendly: Stacking Rings If you’re new to working with silver, my stacking rings workshop is the perfect place to start. In just three hours, you’ll create a stunning set of rings to take home and treasure.
Stacking Rings with Semi-Precious Gemstones This is my absolute favourite class, and it’s no surprise that it’s a hit with so many of you! You’ll learn to incorporate a semi-precious cabochon gem into your designs for a truly special finish.
All-Day Workshop: Spinning Rings Spinning rings are as popular as ever! This full-day workshop will have you creating a stunning statement ring adorned with two gemstones. It’s a day packed with learning new techniques, so clear your schedule and get ready to dive in.
Before I take a short break in April, I still have a few weekends available. Choose from any of the following classes:

Bex Gosling was there with her fantastic handmade bags, and I spoke to some other lovely people who have come to my workshops, who were selling silver clay jewellery and Christmas decorations. If you live locally and haven’t been to the Frost Fair you have to go in 2026 - it’s a really magical vibe,...
Hi Reader! A Jewellery-Making Journey in Memory of a Beloved Dog I wanted to share the making of a charm bracelet for a dear friend. This was a little memento — her dog Mica had passed away recently, and we’d been talking through some ideas. I knew I wanted to make something from scratch. This wasn’t just a gift — it needed to come from the heart. Starting From Scratch A fellow jewellery-making friend had made a chain using a tutorial from Cookson Gold, so I decided to start there.

Hi Reader! I hope you are well and having a lovely summer? I have been working on a few projects during my break, though not as many as I had hoped, as moving house has taken up so much time! But momentum is building, and hopefully one day I will have a little jewellery collection to show you. Sometimes the creative process takes a bit of time to kick in.
