We had so much fun on the inaugural "broken to wearable" workshop that we had to get another on the calendar immediately. We really don't know what we'll end up with but that is part of the creative process. In this last workshop, we created earrings and bracelets from broken necklaces and earrings from bracelets; fixed a necklace using cold connections; made a ring wearable and so much more. Oh- and we laughed a lot too.

You will learn how to weave a monarch wing necklace and go home with enough supplies to make a matching pair of earrings.

No experience is necessary but patience and your reading glasses are recommended!

NOTE: There is an additional materials fee of $45 per person payable to Lara at the beginning of the workshop.

In this 4-day workshop 9:00a.m.-5:00p.m. each day), we will be learning to spin cast, also known as centrifugal casting, also known as lost wax casting, etc. But, we will also play around with some more experimental forms of casting like broom casting, cuttlefish bone casting and castings taken from nature. We’re focusing on process more than design so don’t get intimidated if someone comes in with amazing wax carving abilities, or a long resume of jewelry making, everyone will walk away with some amazing pieces!
