NEW! 5445. Unusual Stone Setting

Workshop - Metals | This class is completed

Take your stone setting to a new level by learning to use prongs on your unusual shaped stones. In this workshop we will discuss why, when and how to use prongs to secure stones, buttons, shells and more. Students should be comfortable with basic metalsmithing skills, like sawing, filing and soldering. There will be a large selection of stones from which to choose, or bring a few of your own and we will pick a good one to learn with.  Kit fees will be determined by the stone and size. Your instructor Debora will have silver and accent stones for sale as well. Materials fees $30 and up depending on your design. Debora will collect the kit fees during the workshop and can accept credit cards, Venmo, cash or check.

  • Fees for materials will be collected during the workshop and will vary depending on the project chosen. Students should expect to spend approx. $30+. CCs, Venmo, cash or check

I believe that women and men express themselves in many ways; one of the most fun and unique being the type of jewelry that they use to adorn themselves! I have crafted in almost every medium for years, but once I found metal and wire, that was it for me. I find it fascinating that with a few twists of your hand you can create something beautiful, wearable and unique. I use beads as accents to add color to my creations, but you will find that my metal creations are primarily... metal, lots of texture and movement and deep oxidation are themes throughout my jewelry. Over the last 8 years I have added enameling to my list of most loved techniques. The range of colors just brighten my day! As well as designing and making jewelry I travel and teach a wide variety of jewelry techniques. I love, love, love teaching! Sharing with other enthusiastic, jewelry loving people is always a joy!
