Have you always wanted to learn how to make jewelry using precious metals like sterling silver, but felt intimidated by the cost of getting started? Working with real silver doesn’t require a setup that costs hundreds of dollars as we introduce you to Silver Metal Clay!
In this workshop, we will explore some of the basics of how to start working with Silver Metal Clay. You will create a Pendant using a medium called Silver Metal Clay. A stone will be set in the pendant with an embeddable silver setting. You will then have finish options: polish to a bright shine or a soft satin finish with antiquing accenting the texture.
After being fired at DinsDesigns studio for 2 hours in a kiln at 1650°, this clay is 99% pure silver! We will set your stone, finish/polish your pendant, and deliver it back to TMA for pickup within a week
Level: Beginner to Advanced
All supplies included. TMA members receive 10% off all registrations. Parents encouraged for young students.

Jennifer Dins | Art Educator
I am from the Milwaukee, WI area and I moved to Madison, WI to earn my undergraduate degree in marketing. In 2000, I earned a master’s degree in management, training and organizational development. But besides a mother and wife, what I really am is a life-long artist who found myself in a non-creative career for over 25 years.
After a potentially terminal cancer diagnosis in 2006 permanently sidelined me from my 25 year management career, I decided to follow my creative heart and began to explore a new medium: metal clay. This medium is easy on my sore hands and joints and I feel a sense of accomplishment every time I complete a piece. The uniqueness of this material allows me to add fingerprints, paw prints and even handwriting directly into the silver. Most of my sales are to people who have lost someone and want to capture a piece of him or her within the silver of an heirloom piece. I now believe it’s my calling to help these people through a particularly difficult time.
