A JEWELLERY company is to open its doors to parents and children interested in making their own designs.

Not the Norm, in Clark's Yard, Darlington, is running a series of workshops, including jewellery making and bead weaving, during this month and next.

Owner Michelle Douglas, who has run the business for seven years, uses semi-precious stones and crystals in her designs, which she sells at craft fairs and in Darlington's Cornmill Shopping Centre.

She said: "Our classes give everyone an opportunity to develop their artistic imagination and go home with a unique piece of jewellery."
