We can come to your home or to a suitable venue of your choice.
Parties are generally about 11/2 – 2 hours long, and it takes us about half an hour before and after to set up and clear up.
Where possible, firing is undertaken in low lighting as you can watch as the ‘clay’ turns to Silver – which is very exciting! Some items may be fired on a gas hob if you have one, or a gas hotplate (or if appropriate, in a small kiln) which we supply.
All pieces are finished and ready to take home by the end of the event.
Silver Clay Workshops & Courses
Courses and Workshops can be held at a suitable venue of your choice. It takes about half an hour before and after for us to set up and clear up.
Alternatively, for groups of 6-8, courses can be held at our venue in Cheam, Surrey, or in Beckenham, Kent, by prior arrangement.
Jewellery Party
As Party Host, you are entitled to a discounted price (calculated on the sales made at the party) for the items of jewellery of your choice (or a Gift Voucher to the same value to redeem later). The Jewellery Party Host discount is calculated on the sales made during a party, as follows:
total party sales up to £250 - discount calculated at 10% of total sales
total party sales £251+ - discount calculated at 15% of total sales
So if, for example, sales at your party total £280, you will be entitled to £28.00 towards your chosen jewellery.
Also, for each of your guests who subsequently hosts their own Charm School Jewellery Party, you receive either a free Gift Voucher, or additional jewellery, to a value up to £20.
Prices start from under £10.00, and purchases can be made by cash or cheque.
All you do is invite 6 to 20 guests (not including yourself or the Charm School Party Planner) and, on party day, the Charm School Party Planner arrives to prepare a display about half an hour before guests are due.
