Discover how to make pendants and earrings from fine silver Precious Metal Clay in this two-day workshop. The experience begins with a two-hour intro to forming and molding techniques, including hand-building, mold-making, hollow core beads, bas relief, and slab construction.
You’ll explore design possibilities and craft your own pieces with Biliana’s guidance, learning skills such as texturing, refining, soldering, and patination.
