About this Event
Katheryn Hande will teach you the basics of leather cutting and metalwork for jewelry making and guide you through the fabrication of your own 99% pure copper earrings.
We will be using wire flush cutters, pliers, hammers and files to shape, work harden and finish the copper pieces. Then we will use rotary cutters, hole punches, leather finishing medium and wooden slickers to finish our leather components. Finally, we will put it all together into a pair of fashionable and wearable earrings!
Katheryn will provide you with a choice of leather colors and beads so you can tailor these stunning earrings to your own taste.
Embrace the joy of creativity and join us!
