Creating jewelry using metal forming or fabrication uses a varied of different techniques such as sawing, filing, shaping, hammering, and other techniques used to form metal piece(s) into a desired shape. There are endless possibilities to creating jewelry using these techniques.
For instance, the Metal Heart Pendant workshop, new for January features a technique called metal folding. In this workshop students fold a piece of metal and cut out the desired shape such as a heart. They will then anneal and hammer the piece of metal with texturizing hammers to form a personalized pendant. After forming the metal into the desired shape they will then smooth out the edges by using a dremel tool. Also in this workshop, students will also learn how to do a torch patina and have the option to add chain, jumprings, and clasp to the piece.
