Jewelry with a Bang 
Instructors:  Lydia Johns and Gwen Youngblood

Have you ever had a day where you just wanted to hit something with a hammer?  Well, don’t let that moment be destructive!  Come learn how to use that urge to create awesome pieces of metal jewelry.

 

We have a whole day together to learn shaping, stamping, cold metal connections, and patina techniques using brass and copper sheet metal.  You will take plain sheets of metal and work them into your own creative pieces.  You can form earrings, pendants, bracelets, and even rings! Be sure to wear an old shirt because this is a messy class!

 

We will be bringing tools for you to use during the class, however if you already have these materials, you might want to bring them along:

 

Steel bench block

Metal hole punch

Patterned hammers

Metal Stamps

Center punch

Chain nose pliers

Round nose pliers

Chasing hammer

Dapping block

Polishing cloth

Patina Solutions

Patterns for tracing
