That was one of the best classes I've ever taken. Joy was full of excellent information and had a great sense of humor. I made 7 pairs of earrings and it got me very inspired to do many more. Please extend my thanks to her again.

About this course
This introductory course will focus on the design process and basic fabrication techniques of jewelry making and metalsmithing. In this class, students will begin with a sample project to practice design, layout and construction of a small decorative metal piece. This will serve as a guide to practice using basic tools and techniques for sawing, soldering, texturing and polishing. Using these skills students will design and construct a custom pendant, ring and/or earrings. Additional demonstrations including bezel setting and riveting will be included during this course.
