When you’re running a jewellery business, there are moments when the spark
dims. You lose a bit of the magic, the motivation starts to wane, and you
question whether you’re really cut out for this. Sound familiar? You’re not
alone.
Jeweller Jessica Croft knows this feeling well. After years of
self-teaching and building her jewellery business, she hit what she
describes as a “stop gap” where she needed to decide whether to keep going
or get ‘a real job’. That’s when she signed up for a Diploma with Jewellers
Academy and has never looked back. Here are 5 reasons she recommends to
Diploma to anyone ready to grow their jewellery making skills.
One of the questions I get asked most often about our online Diploma
courses is: What do I do if I get stuck?
This post addresses this fear covering why that happens a lot less than you
would think (with an online course there’s no forgetting what to do next
because you can rewind), the support you get to help you keep moving
forwards and why our online Diploma courses have a 99% success rate.
In this week’s inspiring episode of the Jewellers Academy podcast, Jess
spoke with jewellery artist and tutor Risza Lopes de Cruz, whose creative
journey spans continents—from East Timor to Brighton, England. Risza shares
how her love of jewellery making began with beading in Southeast Asia and
evolved into a thriving business rooted in cultural heritage and personal
meaning.
When Niloo, a full-time IT engineer from Finland, decided to sign up for
the Diploma in Silver Metal Clay with Jewellers Academy, she didn’t know
just how much it would impact her creativity, confidence, and sense of
achievement.
Now nearing the end of her Diploma journey, Niloo shares her top takeaways
and advice for anyone considering enrolling – especially if you’re on the
fence, wondering whether you’re ‘ready enough’ or ‘creative enough.’
Spoiler alert: you are.
Here are her top reasons to join the Diploma in Silver Metal Clay.
