Dazzling Dangles	6:30 - 9:30 Wednesday
	Riki Schumaker	$70

Student Level: All
Type of Workshop: Project
Prerequisite: None

These necklaces prove that metalwork needn’t be complicated or expensive to be amazing. We will transform a variety of round wires into a fantastic organic piece. Heavy wire is hammered, shaped and formed creating a beautiful collar focal. Then forge, anneal and shape thinner wire into textural dangles to enhance this fashion forward look. Create playful movement and everyday wear ability. Choose to make one of the designs shown above or one of your own design.

Materials fee: $15 payable to Instructor at class time includes:
10-, 16-, 18-gauge dead-soft round bronze wire
16-gauge dead-soft silver filled wire
Pickle
Patina solution
Torches and MAPP gas

Students should bring:
Ball-peen hammer
Bench block
Chasing hammer
Fine-tip marker
Flush-cut wire cutters
Metal files
Center punch
Mouse pad or rag for hammering
Flatnose pliers

NOTE: If you wish to use sterling silver in your drops rather than silver filled, bring 2 feet of 16 gauge sterling silver dead soft wire. When we draw a bead on the end of silver filled, the copper core will show through, which adds to the mixed metals look. Sample is made in sterling silver
