ABOUT ME
Welcome to Olive Tree Jewellery. My name is Eileen, I am the Founder, Designer and Tutor of Olive Tree Jewellery. I am passionate about beautiful, handcrafted jewellery that celebrates special moments.
My jewellery journey began during the 'Lockdowns' when I began making beaded jewellery to occupy my time. Long story short, my designs went from strength to strength and after a few years I began selling them at craft fairs, which were well received.
After a silversmithing course, I caught the bug for making beautiful silver jeweller. I began by making rings followed by bangles, pendants and earrings! After becoming proficient in silversmithing skills. I have now set up my own studio and workshop in Union Street, Andover, where I teach others the skills and techniques required for silver and metalsmithing.
I deliver 1-day Workshops making silver stacking rings, spinner rings, bangles; stone setting; earring making; beaded jewellery rings, bracelets, earrings and necklaces.
I also offer longer courses, 10weeks Silversmithing; 6wks or 3wk intensive and weekend courses, Sat & Sun.
New Workshops are released monthly in advance.
Training is offered for complete beginners, and to those with some experience. So don't worry if you've never held a piercing saw or don't know your pickle from your fluxes...I will guide you through it in a fun and creative environment.
Thank you for stopping by Olive Tree Jewellery. I look forward to helping you embrace your new creative journey. xx
