$1\/24 Copper fold-formed earrings by James Thurman$

Fold-forming is a quick but surprising way of shaping and texturing metal. By hammering on folded metal in particular ways, a wide range of shapes can be easily created. For this workshop, each student will have a chance to create their own pair of copper fold-formed earrings with silver ear wires. All tools and materials are included. No experience is necessary!
