Workshop: Circle Earrings

Make the hoop earrings you’ve been dreaming of or make the ideal handmade present for a buddy in this three hour intro level workshop. Expect to gain familiarity with basic traditional jewelry tools and techniques. You will learn to measure, cut, solder, file, form and finish the material. Expect to make one to three pairs of earrings depending on the complexity of your designs. I will provide 14 gauge round bronze and sterling silver for the earrings, and 20 gauge sterling silver wire for the french earring hooks. (These are the dimensions of the circle hoops I sell.) If you have experienced the need for smaller-than-standard earring hook wire, let me know and I will bring smaller 22 gauge material. You are invited to make similar earrings to the ones in the photo, or to expand and explore any shapes, lines and forms you want. Please bring a journal, sketchbook or piece of paper and a writing utensil to sketch out ideas. All other tools and materials will be provided.

If the minimum of 3 participants is not met, the class may be canceled or rescheduled. Your registration will apply to another class of equal value. Maximum 8 participants.

This workshop will be held at the Bluebird & Co. Annex. 5792 Three Notch'd Rd, Crozet, VA. Located behind and to the right of the store.

Learn to make simple silver stacking rings in this three hour intro level workshop. We will have two sizes of material, (1mm round and 4mm flat, the same dimensions of my thin Sentinel Stacking Rings and the Wide Sentinel Stacking rings). You will have time to make at least two rings during this workshop, one of each size or whichever combo you like. If you have time and desire you can make more! Expect to gain familiarity with basic traditional jewelry tools and techniques. You will learn to measure, cut, solder, file, form and finish the material. The material dimensions are just the starting point, you may wish to add different textures with hammers or patterns with files to your rings. I will also bring copper scraps to practice techniques on if desired. All tools and materials will be provided.
