Would you like to learn how to make your own silver pendant using silver metal clay?  I will be teaching a class July 17 at the Workhouse in Bend!  Silver metal clay is the material I use to create the silver spiral caps in the earrings shown. It is so much fun to work with. If you have been wanting to learn, now is your chance. Tell your friends! Here's some more info about the material and the class:

Beginning Silver Metal Clay
Thursday, July 17th 2014 
5:30-9:00 pm @ The Workhouse

Silver metal clay (also known as precious metal clay) is an amazing material that can be worked with like clay. As it is fired the binder burns out and leaves behind pure silver. Silver metal clay is loved among jewelers because of its ability to capture imprinted images and textures as well as its malleable nature. Through this hands on class you will gain understanding of the process of creating a silver clay object from beginning to finish. Working with basic techniques students will explore the possible applications of silver clay while creating their own pendants that will culminate in a completed necklace that can be worn straight out of class! Other possible applications include making pieces such as components for bracelets, dangles for earrings, and silver beads.

No prior experience necessary! Tuition includes all supplies which consist of a beginning tool kit that students will get to keep as well as the silver metal clay. $115
