Fabulous Felted Wool Jewelry
JW20FA10W
Create wearable woolen works of art to adorn yourself! In this one-day workshop, we’ll explore both wet felting and needle-felting techniques. Throughout the class, we will play with form, function, color, surface and texture. We’ll learn how to felt over a form, create 3-D flowers, fashion beads of all shapes and sizes...and then put it all together as a bracelet, necklace, ring or pin. Students will take home two pieces of hand-felted wool jewelry, and will have the skills necessary to continue experimenting on their own.

Discover PMC
JW21FA10W
Have fun working with the newest material to hit the jewelry industry - Precious Metal Clay (PMC). It looks and feels like clay, but is actually pure silver in an organic binder. It is fun and fast to work with, and requires no previous experience. Students will learn techniques for forming, surface texturing, firing, and finishing PMC and will be able to finish several pieces of jewelry. Materials fee* of approximately $98.00 is payable to the instructor at class. Use of basic tools and PMC for class projects is included in the materials fee. (*materials fee is subject to change with the metals market).
