Sarah Myleti Jewellery

Available Dates:
Sunday 18th February – Sarah Myleti Jewellery
Sunday 17th March – Sarah Myleti Jewellery

Sarah is a ‘one-woman-band’ behind Myleti Jewellery who has a passion for designing and making gorgeous jewellery to be treasured.

Sarah has loved jewellery since she was little and used to spend hours rummaging through her Granny’s jewellery boxes. Fast forward from then she ended up working in the fashion industry as a high street accessories designer/senior buyer for over thirteen years. She became disillusioned by mass production and cheap ‘throwaway’ jewellery that fell apart and turned your skin green after a few weeks.

Sarah’s dream was to be able to design and hand make her own quality designs here in the UK.

At the beginning of 2020 Sarah undertook a silversmith course with the London Jewellery School. She loved it so much, she continued to learn online and make jewellery at home. Then in June 2020, (in the middle of the first Covid lockdown) Myleti was born.

Myleti is actually a Lithuanian word that means ‘To love’. – Sarah’s Grandad was Lithuanian and she wanted to incorporate part of her heritage in to her brand, so ‘To Love’ felt the perfect fit.

Contact Helen to Learn More

As a secondary school teacher of Art Helen relished the opportunity to guide & encourage students to express their ideas using a wide range of media and techniques, exploring colour, texture, shape and form etc and ultimately growing in confidence, However, she recently felt that I needed to free up some time for herself to experiment, so decided to take the plunge and spend time exploring different ideas and in turn developing a range of creative workshops and kits. Helen loves the quote from Thomas Merton which sums up how important being creative can be for our wellbeing “Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.”

If you only make one change in your daily life why not come along and be a creative butterfly. Join us for an inspirational day, learning new skills, experimenting with ideas, having fun with like-minded people that you can bounce ideas off and get into your creative  ‘zone’. Helen has over 20 years teaching experience and is passionate to help people find the confidence to experiment with a wide range of media and techniques. By the end of the session you will leave with a unique creation, the knowledge and confidence to further develop your new skills and a spring in your step. Some say it’s better than a spa day!
