Stud Earrings

Class Description

Taught by BKMW Instructors

In this workshop learn how to create 2 pairs of simple and elegant stud earrings. There will be a choice from 4 variations: un-altered wire, square wire twisted, textured wire, and decorative filing. These pieces will be sized according to each participant's preference, for a personal touch. Techniques such as high temperature silver soldering, wire twisting, stamping designs, simple hammer work, and finishing metal surfaces will be taught. Students will leave with finished stud earrings, ready to wear.

All tools, equipment, and materials will be supplied including sterling silver for 2 pairs of stud earrings with posts and earring backs. 

Class size 2 – 8 students.

These classes are offered for adults who are 18 years old or older and are open to the public.

Open to all levels and great for beginners. 

Students should wear closed toe shoes and natural fibers. Aprons will be provided as well as safety glasses for class time use.

Note: If you regularly wear glasses to magnify small text, please bring them with you, it will help!
