5546. Stunning Leaf Jewelry Workshop
Workshop - Metals | Registration opens 5/13/2025 9:00 AM EDT
Make your own leaf jewelry in this metalsmithing class for beginners and beyond! Create earrings, a necklace, or both! Discover the art of metalsmithing in this hands-on class designed for beginners and continuing students alike. Inspired by the beauty of nature, you’ll learn to create your very own leaf-themed jewelry using copper, brass, or sterling silver sheet and wire.
We’ll cover the fundamentals of working with metal, including sawing, filing, texturing, forming, and finishing techniques. You’ll have the freedom to design and craft a unique pair of earrings, a pendant necklace, or a matching set—perfect for gifting or keeping as a one-of-a-kind handmade treasure.
No prior experience needed—leave class with a finished piece (or two!) and a solid introduction to the world of jewelry making.
A $10 materials fee is payable at registration and includes materials. You're welcome to bring a beverage and snacks or bag lunch and take a lunch break.
Earrings in brass and sterling silver are also possible!
