By Annie Symonds

Are you looking for new things to do after work? Skip the after-work drinks and try jewelry-making classes in San Francisco instead! Whether you’re looking to catch up with the girls, bond with work colleagues or you’re trying to find unique team-building activities, why not try something different and learn how to make your own jewelry? You’ll wonder why you didn’t try it sooner! 

Although you’ve pulled through the dramatic changes involved with WFH, you might like to get back to experiencing a better work-life balance. While many people need routine, having that flipped upside down has been hard on everyone. When suddenly having to work from home, you might miss the social side of your job, and catching up with colleagues over Zoom might feel more like a burden than a high-point during your day. Want to connect and build stronger relationships in person? It’s time to find some new and exciting activities to do together.

You might pine after the days of popping by the local coffee shop on the way to work to order your usual grande oat milk latte. But it’s likely that you’re not just missing the friendly faces who greet you with a smile – you’re also probably missing after-work drinks with your colleagues! Whether you’re looking to catch up with your besties or fancy a giggle after work without drinking alcohol, jewelry-making classes in San Francisco could be the ideal alternative.

When it comes to our mental health and wellness, we all need to make sure we’re actively looking out for ourselves – and drinking alcohol might not be one of the best ideas, especially when work stress is high. You might like to try activating your creative side a little more and promote balance in the way that you use your brain. Simply by doing more creative San Francisco activities, you could see benefits and improvement in your wellness. Do more things you love and you’ll be feeling energized and ready to take on the world! You could start to see an improvement with your workload, making it a win all around.

While you might not be a fan of doing things out of your comfort zone, jewelry-making classes in San Francisco make the best team-building activities because it’s something most of the team would have never done. Organize this team-building event idea in San Francisco for the women in the team and something else for the men so they can connect on a level like never before until they re-group for more activities later on. 

If you’re looking for new things to do in San Francisco with your friends, have fun at a jewelry-making class together and you’ll enjoy learning new skills while making fun memories.

With plenty of jewelry-making classes in SF to choose from, here are popular jewelry workshops to consider.
