Description
Silver Spinner Ring Workshop
Sat 17 May
This creative, one-day ring making class is jam-packed with techniques and an ideal introduction to making silver jewellery. Come along and make pleasingly fidgety spinner rings with us! These statement kinetic rings move and spin, making them great stress busters and little distractions to channel nervous energy. In just a day we’ll learn how to texture, shape and solder a set of rings in your own design.
Your class will begin with a demonstration of how to make basic rings out of wire and sheet metal. You will practice this technique before using all the new skills you’ve learned to make a statement spinner ring with moving wire components. You can apply different textures and finishes to your spinning rings to make your ring completely unique.
Level: Beginners and above
What to bring:
- We’ll provide everything you need for your spinner ring workshop, including tools and enough silver to make a regular sized ring as pictured. You have the option to purchase extra silver for additional spinning rings, but most students only have time for two
- Please bring along glasses if you need them
- Wear appropriate clothing and footwear for a studio environment, including closed-toe shoes. Why not treat yourself to a CSSJ branded apron to make you feel right at home?
- If you have long hair, please wear it up
- If you are the type of person who prefers to arm yourself with some knowledge ahead of time, then we have prepared a Pinterest page filled with jewellery-making information and inspiration just for you!
- Tea, coffee and biscuits supplied. It would be great if you could bring your own lidded cup. Bring along your lunch to eat in the studio, or we can advise you of nearby places to eat
