DESCRIPTION
Discover the magic of kiln-fired enamel: You'll sift, stencil, and walk away wearing your work. Ignite your creativity in this fast-paced, hands-on class as you explore the vibrant world of glass-on-metal and leave with your own finished jewelry!
In this two-hour session, you'll learn the basics of enameling. You'll start by sifting powdered enamel onto pre-cut copper shapes and firing them in a kiln. Next, you'll add a second layer of color and pattern using stencils. Finally, you'll attach ear hooks to create a unique pair of earrings, and you'll add a jump ring to your practice sample to transform it into a pendant that you can wear or gift.
Experience the excitement of transforming color and heat into bold, wearable art. No prior experience is necessary; just bring your enthusiasm and a sense of play!
