Stained Glass Jewelry Class

In class, you will get to creat 3 pairs of earrings or 2 sets of earrings and a matching pendant per set (6 total pieces at the end of class). We will select glass from the scrap glass bins to pair up and shape them on the grinders into stained glass pendants or earrings. After that we will foil and solder our stained glass peices to prepare for assembly into earrings or pendants. Then we will put our jewelry together, adding earring hooks, and optional beads.

All supplies are included but if you have special beads or plated metal parts you would like to use, feel free to bring them. Earring hooks, chain, jump rings used in class are surgical steel rated. We will be using lead-free solder for this class.

During class, you can opt to create more pieces for $10/pair of earrings or $5 per pendant.
