Beginning Soldering: Embrace BraceletInstructor: Francesca Faucette
Saturday, December 20 | 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM
We’ve all faced battles, and the Embrace Bracelet was created to honor them. Each handcrafted, interlocking link symbolizes the power of love and prayer—and the strength of the loved ones and friends who stand by us through life’s storms.
Learn the basics of soldering while creating a meaningful Embrace Bracelet. In this beginner-friendly class, you'll get comfortable with common silversmithing terms like pickle, flux, and firescale, and practice essential techniques using a small micro-torch and simple, easy-to-find tools. Students will explore wire shaping, soldering, filing, oxidizing, polishing, and finishing to complete their own handcrafted piece.
Skill Level: Beginner (even if you haven’t soldered before)
Age: 18+

About the Instructor
Francesca is a designer at heart and has been creating jewelry since early 1999. She is mostly self-taught, although she has taken workshops in almost all mediums. Francesca works intuitively, gathers inspiration and twists, turns, bashes, and burns it until she gets the desired outcome. Her work is bold, expressive, and filled with texture! Francesca has taught in the Carolinas, at national bead shows, and for almost 2 decades in the Nashville area as Francesca Lynn and has recently relocated back to the home of her heart, East Tennessee, where she started Studio Navarri.
