In these classes I will take you through making a fold over pendant, filigree piece using syringe clay, a sheet clay piece or an organic slip piece depending on what appeals to you. I will also demonstrate torch firing with a Chef's Butane torch.  You will then be able to torch fire your own piece/s to take home. Please note: If you have included a Cubic Zirconia or Dichroic Glass Cabochon in your work they will need to be kiln fired over night.

If you are a beginner then starting with the basics will give you a good grounding in how to use Precious Metal Clay and allow you to move onto more complicated pieces.  If you have experience working with PMC and have a specific design in mind but are unsure how to achieve it we can work on it together.

Items you might like to Bring:

If you think you would like to make the organic piece like my leaf necklace please bring along some heavily veined leaves, like geraniums or Ivy.  Or you can have a look around my garden!

Remember nothing is wasted! all scraps can be turned into slip and after firing if you're not happy with your design you can add more clay and refire your piece!
