Bluebells at work

I like my students to have a good time, whether doing a full day course or a shorter 3 hour course, the goal is the same; for students to learn about PMC and related skills in a fun and relaxed environment. Don’t get me wrong, I take the training of my students very seriously, but I believe that people learn far better when they are enjoying themselves.

I am passionate about sharing my skills and techniques, but at the same time encouraging flair and creativity in each of my students. I think that my students would agree, the large majority of them leave here with a brand new, exciting skill, lots of ideas and enthusiasm and a determination to return for more classes.

Here are some examples of the amazing work of the “Bluebells” and what they had to say about their experiences at Bluebell Design Studio.


“Just wanted to say thanks again for today. I always have a lovely time and I’m really pleased with my pieces.” Fiona, a regular Bluebell. Ring Workshop

“I just wanted to thank you for a fabulous weekend of learning and fun. My Monday morning at work was even duller than usual as I kept thinking back to how much I enjoyed meeting new people and getting to grips with the new materials. Everyone I have shown my work to so far have been really impressed which has been great. I can see me getting the orders to make Christmas presents now!. I have no doubt I will book up for another course at some point, particularly the adding colour session which I think sounds very interesting. I will obviously be recommending your workshops to my friends at my jewellery class on Wednesday too as I’m sure most of them will be amazed at what can be achieved.” Sharon, a first time Bluebell

“I really enjoyed meeting you on Sunday and thought your class was brilliant. It was lovely and relaxed and I can’t believe how the time just flew. I’m just about to book up for your ring class now so I will see you in the not too distant future!!” Lorraine, a first time and later a returning Bluebell Student work

“Emma, I cannot thank you enough for all the expertise, guidance and encouragement that you freely gave to myself and the others who recently completed your one day course in the introduction to working with PMC. Your teaching method was superb, very well presented and constructed with each step flowing effortlessly on from the previous one. I still cannot believe that we all made so many items that day with ongoing tips as to where we may have floundered and how to avoid or correct them so that we were delighted with our finished products. The take home notes accompanying the course are comparable to a reference book on the subject and I re-read them all the time when I work with PMC…maybe you should write a book…” Maggie, a first time Bluebell

“Had a really enjoyable day. Emma is a fantastic teacher and you are guaranteed to take home some fabulous pieces. PMC is very addictive and you can be as creative as your imagination takes you.” Kate, a first time Bluebell

“Just back at work today - thank you for a wonderful day on Tuesday. I really enjoyed myself and the way you had set out the work made it very interesting and worthwhile. I have been showing all my work colleagues and I can’t wait to get some more started. More Student workYour notes are great and I know they will keep me on track when I start.” Joan, a first time Bluebell
