Discover the colourful magic of enamelling and create your own unique piece of wearable art in this beginner-friendly Cairns jewellery workshop.
Visiting Melbourne jewellery artist Sarah Munnings will guide you through the process of transforming copper and powdered glass enamel using the heat of a jeweller’s torch. Unlike kiln-fired enamelling, torch firing lets you watch your piece change as the glass melts and fuses to the metal.
You’ll begin by choosing and shaping your copper piece before learning how to clean and prepare the surface for enamelling. Explore colour combinations and simple decorative effects, then use a torch—with close guidance—to fire the enamel and reveal its glossy finish.
There is no need to arrive with a design or believe that you are “creative.” Sarah’s warm, accessible teaching style gives you permission to experiment, make discoveries, and enjoy the process. Because every piece responds differently to the flame, your finished jewellery will be completely individual.
At the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with a colourful enamelled pendant or pair of earrings made by you, along with a new appreciation for this fascinating traditional technique.

Sarah Munnings was working in the corporate world of finance and when she was struck down by a devastating mystery illness. Tests, more tests, and months of trips to doctors led to the diagnoses of Fibromyalgia (a chronic pain condition). This led to Sarah to rediscover her creativity as her own personal form of rehabilitation and become a self-taught jeweller who developed a table top jewellery practice in her kitchen.
She now teaches others the amazing creations that can be made using copper, silver and brass. She uses traditional techniques of forging, soldering and texturing metal, and is passionate about using tools that are easily accessible so that her guests at workshops can continue their journey of discovery at home.
