7-Hour Workshop
Date: Saturday, November 8
Time: 10am-5pm
Description: During this 7-hour workshop, participants will each make one pair of post earrings and one pair of drop earrings. These may be designed as a set for wearing together, mixing and matching, or gifting friends! This workshop will cover basic sawing, shaping, and texturing techniques for creating an earring design, and will provide step-by-step instruction for soldering and shaping ear wires and posts. Instruction will be geared toward beginning and intermediate metalsmiths, but this workshop is perfect for anyone looking to begin working with silver, practice torch control and soldering setups, or hone their sawing, finishing, and design skills.
