Learn how to make a pair of copper earrings on this fun, beginner friendly, half day workshop
WHO: Learn from our Studio Holder, local sculptor and jewellery-maker, Frances Noon. This class is limited to 6 people, so everyone gets enough time with Frances. It is suitable for complete beginners and those with some experience.
WHAT: It is a great introduction to our workshop facilities and a chance to see if you enjoy making jewellery.
You will initially experiment working with sheet aluminium using tools like disc cutter, snips, piercing saw and files.
Explore how to add texture and pattern to surface with hammer and punches.
This will lead onto using copper or brass, where you will follow directions to make your own pair of drop earrings.
There will be opportunity to sample soldering, and we finish with adding a shiny or matt surface.
The earrings will be copper or brass, but sterling silver will be used for the drop wires that go through a pierced ear.
