​

This short workshop will give you a glimpse into the wonderful world of precious metal clay. If you can play with play dough, you can make jewellery using metal clay! Art Clay Silver is a non-toxic clay made of recycled fine silver particles combined with an organic binder. For this workshop, you will have enough clay to make a small charm for a bracelet or necklace, or a pair of earrings. After forming and finishing the clay, you will use a small butane torch to fire your piece to burn away the organic binder. After firing, you will have a solid piece of 99.9% fine silver jewellery. You will be amazed at the results!

​

The cost of the workshop includes a small package of Art Clay Silver metal clay, use of tools for the day, and sterling silver findings for a charm or earrings. Sterling silver necklace chains are not included, but will be available for purchase for on the day of the workshop.

​
