Crafty Fingers is back again after last year's amazing workshop - check out the amazing work from last year's Tauranga participants!

Join us for a fun, hands-on ring making workshop where you'll design and create your very own ring using the ancient lost wax casting technique. No experience is needed – just bring your creativity!

You'll start by creating your design in jeweller’s wax, with guidance and support every step of the way. Whether you prefer a simple and elegant band or want to experiment with chunky shapes, textures, or even a gemstone, we’ve got you covered. After the workshop, your wax creation will be professionally cast in solid silver, polished, and returned to you by post – ready to wear or gift.

What’s included:

  • All materials (wax, tools, silver casting, finishing)
  • Option to include a small gemstone
  • Tea, coffee and good vibes

Your finished silver piece delivered to you

Perfect for: first-timers, creatives, friends, couples, or anyone wanting to try something new and walk away with a unique piece of handmade jewellery. Let your fingers get crafty – you’ll be amazed by what you can create! Create a piece of jewellery that reflects your personal style and creativity!

After exploring many creative paths, Egle found herself returning to her true passion: crafts. She discovered the magic of transforming raw materials into something meaningful and lasting, and hasn’t looked back since. Egle holds a Certificate in Jewellery Making and continues to deepen her skills in contemporary techniques, especially the lost wax casting process. Her workshops are hands-on, relaxed, and designed to spark joy – whether you're crafting your first ring or dreaming up a bold, one-of-a-kind design. With a warm and encouraging teaching style, Egle is passionate about helping others tap into their creativity and walk away with something they’re proud of – a piece of jewellery that tells a story. Come along and get inspired – no experience needed, just curiosity and a bit of imagination!
