Interested in learning how to make and repair your own jewelry? Our Findings Crash Course is the perfect place to get started. In a small and relaxed group setting, our beginner’s class will teach you the skills needed to string jewelry on two popular materials, clasp your jewelry securely and professionally, and basic wire-wrapping techniques. We’ll talk about approaches to design and materials and get comfortable using our hands in working with small materials and tools. From the skills you learn in class, you will come away with the know-how you need to get started on designing and repairing your own: tackle that bag of broken jewelry, re-create that overpriced piece from a magazine or pull design ideas straight from your imagination. Let us help you get started!
All materials are included. The tools you use during the class are loaned, but you can purchase them at a 20% discount.
Please read on for class specifics and FAQs.Â
