What Do I Learn in a Metal Clay Class?
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced artisan, Some Girls Jewelry metal clay workshops are tailored to ignite your passion for working with natural stones and fine silver.
Classes are divided into two sessions of hands-on learning and artistic exploration. The fundamental techniques of working with Metal Clay are covered during the first session, from creating intricate textures to crafting a stunning ring, pendant, or earrings. You'll also have the opportunity to experiment with adding stones to your creations using pre-made bezel cups, opening up a world of design possibilities.
With 10 grams of fine silver clay at your disposal, along with a bezel cup and stone, you can bring your vision to life. Tools and textures will be provided, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience for all skill levels.
In the second session, we'll take your creation to the next level as we set stones, polish, antique, and finish the pieces to perfection. With expert guidance from instructor Donna Yutzy, you'll refine your techniques and unlock the true potential of your creations.
Both sessions offer a blend of instruction and hands-on practice, allowing you to learn at your own pace and develop your skills with confidence. Metal clay classes are perfect for students 14+. And don't worry—no experience is needed!
