Traralgon Private Workshop
Following a successful workshop Sarah has been invited back to create more magic with you.
Sunday 13 November Sarah is offering two classes, a beginner class for anyone new to Silversmithing, or who wants to practise forging, soldering and creating jewellery.
The afternoon class builds on the skills from the beginner class, teaching how to create a stone setting using pure silver to create setting that rub over a stone.
Beginners Jewellery Making Class
10am - 1pm
$90 pp
Sarah will guide you through learning the traditional techniques to make your own silver jewellery. This workshop is aimed to be a fun creative experience and you require no prior jewellery making or metalworking experience to produce a beautiful piece of jewellery you will treasure for years to come.
Over three hours you will create your own Sterling Silver Ring, Set of Earrings, or Pendant in a design of your own style. You will be guided through the process at your own pace, from designing your custom piece, marking out your design, cutting, forging, soldering, sanding, texturing and then finally finishing your new treasure.
Sarah knows that once you start working with semi-precious metals you'll be hooked! So in order to ensure you are able to create further projects at home on the completion of your class, there is a strong focus on using tools that are readily available and you are able to set up at home.
The cost of all your materials including your Sterling Silver is included in the cost of this class!
