The only way you’re guaranteed to get a totally unique piece of jewellery is either to pay a designer a premium or do it yourself. If you can get down to Bath or Bristol, Shiney Rocks are holding workshops where you can learn to make beaded, crystal and gemstone jewellery from tiaras to earrings and even flowergirl wands and cake decorations! They’ll also accomodate hen parties who want to get together for a group course. Prices are from £45.
