About this Event
Are you curious about how jewelry is made or just starting your jewelry making journey? Join Sylvie from Halstead Jewelry Supplies for a stone set ring making demo. She’ll demo how to make one of the most popular pieces of jewelry from start to finish. We’ll start with wire: how to cut and form it to the correct final size, soldering, and cabochon stone setting. You’ll see what goes into your favorite pieces of jewelry!
