Stretch yourself creatively. Spend a day making a beautiful piece of jewelry you can treasure for years to come!
A wise friend once told me that teaching another person is a great way to discover how much you truly know about a subject or a task.
That’s the case when I teach a student how to make a piece of jewelry. I only offer one-on-one classes because I want to focus on their individual needs and ensure the process is both enjoyable and productive. We always learn from each other.
I work in an airy, light-filled studio filled with a treasure trove of stones, crystals, buttons, and beads. Great inspiration for a piece of jewelry
We start with a thorough safety lecture and move right into design and fabrication.
During the course, I explain and demonstrate each step:
- Wrapping the bezel, soldering it onto the back piece.
- Adding surface decoration, finishing, and stone setting.
- Then it's up to the student, and off we go.
At the end of the day, students have an enormous sense of accomplishment AND a future heirloom that they can treasure for years to come.
I always learn a few things in the process as well. It's truly a collaboration.
Thank you so much for an excellent day! You got me from idea to object in lighting quick time. I love my reliquary pendant, you're and excellent teacher! -FF, Uxbridge
