How would you like to create beautiful, individual pieces of jewellery for a fraction of what they cost in the shops?
Learning a new craft will increase your confidence, as you see your skills develop. Whether you are doing it for a hobby or as a step towards a rewarding new career, beading and embossing will release your creativity.
A beading course is a great way to learn how to create wonderful, individual items of jewellery. How complex they are depends fully on your tastes and level of ambition.
Beading is usually used to produce jewellery. However, as you learn new techniques you can add decorative beads to cushions or cloth.
Beginners will most likely create small pieces of jewellery. While this is a relatively simple method of beading, you will still be able to create some beautiful items.
One of the most satisfying moments for people new to beading is seeing the reaction of a friend or relative when you give them a hand-made item of jewellery. This will show you it truly is the thought that counts.
An embossing course will show you how to create decorative paper or metal. This technique can also be used to add a wonderful 3D affect to pictures.
Embossing involves putting a combination of heat and pressure on paper or other material, so that a section is raised.
If you are new to embossing, you won’t need any expensive or overly-technical equipment. Any resources you do need will be supplied if you take part in most embossing courses.
Embossing has been used since printing was first developed. Today, it is still a very popular method for adding a decorative finish to text and pictures.
