Metal Work Madonna Workshop
Sat. 2:00-6:30

Instructor: Shari Replogle
Embark on a metal working journey while you create your own one-of-a-kind necklace. Create a gorgeous hand-wrought metal cross with a beautifully adorned center bezel featuring a vintage Madonna image (feel free to bring your own photo, if desired). You will learn to use a jeweler's saw to create shapes from sheet metal. Techniques for texturing metals, soldering, adding patinas, bezel forming, wire wrapping, metal stamping and applying protective finishes will be taught.
Supplies: BTK (Basic Tool Kit) and a small metal bench block, chasing hammer, jewelry tools (round, flat pliers and cutters), plus a cheap set of jewelry pliers that can get "gooky", optional: religious medals, beads, or any vintage trinkets
