Do you love to wear jewelry but can’t afford or find what you like to wear? Learn how to make your own jewelry and give awesome gifts.

Make A Sterling Silver Ring in 2-4 hours

What:
I am offering lessons on creating jewelry.


Subject’s available:
Lost wax casting: The basic process of carving a ring in wax and casting it into solid metal will be covered. This can be expanded to learning how create stone settings in wax, casting in different metals, and finishing a cast piece.

Basic soldering: The basic concepts of joining two pieces of metal will be covered. This can be expanded to resizing rings, soldering bezels, and soldering different metals together such as Silver and Copper.

Basic stone setting: Prong setting, channel setting, and bezel setting can all be learned. This can also include learning how to make/ repair your own jewelry, which incorporate these setting techniques.


Where:
Instruction will be given in my workspace in SE Portland. The space is equipped for production of all the jewelry listed in the above subjects.


Equipment:
I will provide access to all the equipment necessary to complete a project. This includes polishing machines, kiln, torches, etc.

Materials:
Materials can be purchased throughout the course or all in advance. You can buy your materials on your own or through me. There are no set materials lists because your interests will define what you need at any given time.


Cost:
Prices will be determined based on your interest and schedules. You can arrange to come in and work every day on your projects for a higher cost than if you came in for two hours twice a week. I am negotiable on prices. In other words, I will try to find a price that is fair to both of us.
