Making Earrings with Nature Imprints

We will make a unique pair of brass or copper earrings bearing the imprint of a real fern. The workshop is for anyone curious about working with metal and learning basic jewellery-making techniques. No prior knowledge is required.

We will use metal sheets with fern impressions already in place. We will design the shape, transfer it to the metal, saw it out, finish the edges and surface, and drill the necessary holes. We will sand and polish the metal and finish the earrings with silver ear posts. You will take your earrings home.
