Add texture, pattern, and personality to your jewelry through the art of metal etching! In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn how to design, transfer and etch your own custom pattern onto metal, then cut, shape and finish it into a stylish bar necklace. Guided by an experienced instructor, you'll explore safe etching techniques, finishing methods and simple assembly so you can wear your new piece home. We'll begin with a brief lecture covering safety and an overview of metal arts, followed by step-by-step demonstrations. Choose from brass or copper, both included in the class cost. Sterling silver will also be available for in-class purchase if you'd like to upgrade your materials. By the end of the workshop, you'll leave with a unique, handcrafted spinner ring, and a solid introduction to basic metalsmithing skills. No experience necessary, just bring your curiosity and creativity!
