Love the colors of the rainbow...love the look of corrugated metal? Then this workshop is for you! If you've never tried torch fired enamel, you'll fall in love and become hopelessly addicted. You'll create your own, unique piece of wearable art in this fun workshop. New to the torch...no problem. I'll show you the safe and easy way to approach this tool and technique. I'll also share with you the easy way to corrugate metal. You'll leave the workshop with valuable new skills that you can use over and over again and a fun, new piece of jewelry that will turn heads.
