Instructor: Beth Liggitt     

Saturday, November, 28th, 2026 from 2:00-5:00 pm at the Blue Moose Art Gallery

Spend a fun afternoon at the work table creating beautiful mixed-metal earrings or pendants while exploring essential wire-forming techniques.

Beth will guide you through forming wire around mandrels or other forms to create interesting shapes, then show you how texture can transform those simple forms into earrings with dimension and personality.

You’ll practice forming, texturing, and simple soldering as you construct your earrings, then explore patina and polishing techniques that add contrast, highlight texture, and give your finished pieces a beautifully finished look.

You’ll leave with handcrafted mixed-metal earrings—and practical wire-working and finishing skills you can bring to future jewelry projects.

These make great handmade gifts and pieces you can replicate later at your kitchen table!
 
Ages 10 and above. 

All tools will be supplied by the instructor.  If you prefer to work in silver we do encourage you to bring sterling silver wire or it can be purchased at the class.
