Class Description:

Learn how to put those silver scraps you’ve been collecting to work for you! Take apart those single earrings that seem to accumulate and reuse the components.  Melt down silver or gold to create new wire or sheet to work with and save money by reusing what you already have! This class will focus on identifying reusable materials including various metals, glass, resin and stones as well as how to problem-solve taking jewelry apart. This one-day workshop is designed to teach basic metal indentification skills, casting ingots for sheet and wire and preparing the materials to use for future projects.
