As well as creating my own jewellery, I also teach Kumihimo braided jewellery classes at various local bead shops, beading groups and for private individuals.


What I can offer - 

*   In person Workshops, I am now so pleased to say that I am restarting these. I really love teaching in person  and have so missed them over the last couple of years. 


*   Zoom Workshops, to take part you will need a device such as a laptop, computer, iPad or other tablet with audio and video and have a reasonably good internet connections. Smart phones are not really recommended as the size of the screen is too small to get the best from the demonstrations. You will also need to downloaded the free version of Zoom to be able to join the workshop. It is your responsibility to make sure you have the correct equipment and knowledge to join a meeting, but lots of help is available on zoom.us and you can contact me for assistance.

*   1-1 tuition for a full day in your location. This could cover general braiding techniques or a specific pattern. All materials and equipment can be provided, so this is a good option for a beginner wanting to start braiding.

*  Tuition for a small group such as a beading group wanting to try something different or even a jewellery making party. Generally 2 - 3 hours with materials and equipment provided.

Reviews of some of my Zoom workshops

What can I say about Claire's workshop. I can say that they are a joy to attend. Claire is an excellent teacher with a very relaxed approach. You're not intimidated as Claire is so supportive and the others in the class have all been there before. It's amazing how much you learn about kumihimo at a workshop and what you did wrong before coming to one of her workshops. This one was amazing, seeing the amazing way kumihimo can work. The Helical necklace is a wonderful design and learning how to do it with such friendly people is a fantastic experience.

This is my 3rd or 4th Zoom class with Claire of Sulis Designs. In our class most everyone were fluent with braiding cords on a disk so we jumped right in with one practice braid and then began our project after Claire provided guidance and video examples. Her knowledge far exceeds expectations and even has worked out the “what if” situations. I am always amazed at what Claire comes up with each class. Her pleasant personality is perfect as an instructor and without pressing us kept us on track so we ended exactly on top. Probably my favorite class she has.
