Are YOU ready to do something different and fun? We haven’t offered this class for a while and thought it is about time! Please join us for a fun and exciting copper cuff bracelet making workshop. Perfect for a New Year’s Mantra Bracelet.
What:
In this workshop, you’ll learn the basics of jewlery making from from shaping the metal to hammering to produce textures and polishing it to a shine. You’ll also have the opportunity to get creative and can stamp a word or two or even a date.
We will provide all the necessary supplies, including copper, tools, and instructions. No experience is necessary, so everyone is welcome.
Here’s what to expect:
We’ll start by filing the bracelet and stamping words or dates.
Then we will shape the bracelet.
Once your bracelet is shaped, we’ll use sandpaper to smooth out any rough edges.
Finally, we’ll polish your bowl to a beautiful shine.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a beautiful and functional copper cuff bracelet that will last your life time.
