In this day long session you’ll learn to make beautiful and unique jewelry with PMC (Precious Metal Clay). PMC is real silver suspended in a clay-like medium. It’s non-toxic and requires very little training or special equipment.

During the day the instructor will guide you through 2 projects that emphasize how to work with the clay and utilize proper construction techniques. You’ll have the choice of designing your own pendant or earrings or choose one of the projects designed by the instructor. In this hands-on workshop, you will learn the basics of working with PMC: layering and adding textures, proper construction techniques, stone setting, torch firing and simple finishing techniques. You’ll also learn about stone setting, and how to use liver of sulfur to create a beautiful patina on your piece. This class is perfect for both beginners and advanced beginners.

The class fee covers a package of PMC+ and in-class use of all the necessary tools - everything needed to create your one-of-a-kind jewelry. You’ll leave with completed pieces of silver jewelry designed by YOU, handouts & resources, and the skills necessary to make fine silver jewelry, from start to finish, in your own home.

Cost includes needed materials.
