Learn how to make a unique pair of hoop earrings in 2 - 3 hrs from round, oval or square section recycled sterling silver using traditional silver fabrication skills of sawing, texturing, punching, soldering, forming and polishing.
You get to choose the size, shape and whether you'd like your hoops fixed from a soldered ear post with butterfly stopper, or dangly from handmade ear-wires. If desired, finish your hoops with small decorative handmade silver charms. A fun and creative hands-on experience for all abilities!
So that you can choose the size and style of your hoops, your silver material will be weighed and charged extra by the gram at the end.
Each class will be kept to a maximum of 6 people aged 16 years and over.
