DIY Jewelry 101

Join Repurpose Project co-founder, Sarah Goff, and local artist and RP staff member, Alix Mathia for a laid back, low pressure jewelry making evening focusing on the use of salvaged and repurposed material. Learn the basics of the dremel tool for drilling holes into material so they can be jump ringed together. Explore different and unexpected material for your jewelry projects. Get aquatinted with the basics of jewelry soldering to connect jump rings so they won't pull out easily. This is an introductory class and there will be a variety of materials in our workshop space that are included in the price of the workshop. Feel free to get to the store early if you would like to look around and purchase specific items for your creations or bring items you would like to work with.
