Maker's bio

Hi. My name is Jonathan Kettle. I love to teach people how to make their own silver jewellery! I run evening classes, 1:1 sessions, weekday classes and a very popular beginners class - the cake, coffee and cosy studio are important, but my main aim is for you to enjoy to the experience, and for you to leave at the end of the day with your own handmade silver jewellery piece. Some course dates are listed on this site but please contact me if you can't see a suitable one. Welcome!

Carrie Marsh reviewed: Spinner Rings at Salt Way Silver

"We had a fantastic time at the spinner ring class at Salt Way Silver! There were four of us in total, and it was such a lovely day out—relaxed, friendly, and really enjoyable. We each came away with a beautiful handmade ring to wear. The homemade flapjacks were amazing too—such a nice touch! We're already planning to book more classes soon."

Salt Way Silver responded:

"HI Carrie (and Lisa, Nancy and Abbie)! It was a good day and I enjoyed helping you with your silver jewellery making. You are always welcome back - we could try something a little more challenging next time? Thank you for taking the time to write your very kind review - it really means a lot. Jonathan"
