Tiara Making

Nicky Bennett, a professional tiara maker, turns up to these day courses with a range of beautiful tiaras to inspire and delight us! Using crystal beads and different wires, she demonstrates the making of a tiara and then helps everyone to replicate it.

Each course has a different tiara to make, for a variety of occasions e.g. for a bride and bridesmaid, formal evening event, prom wear and Christmas. On each course a second smaller item is produced such as a head pin / comb or button hole.

Courses are from 10.30 a.m. to 2.30 p.m. on a Saturday, lunch and all materials included in the price.

‘I have been to 4 courses so far and have loved every one of them. I wore one of the tiaras at Christmas (it was much admired by friends and family), and my daughter has her eye on one for the school prom this year. I have used the techniques when creating jewellery so that has been a big bonus.'
