Which jewelry making classes can I take?

Jewelry workshops mainly differ by technique and material:

• Beaded jewelry and charm necklaces: At a charm bar you combine pendants with glass, Miyuki or freshwater pearls into a necklace, bracelet or earrings – the quickest way into jewelry making.
• Gemstone and silver beading: Using 925 sterling silver, gold-plated elements, gemstones and cultured pearls, you create high-quality jewelry without soldering.
• Wax ring carving (lost-wax technique): You shape your ring from special wax, which is then cast in silver or gold.
• Art Clay silver jewelry: A modelling clay made of 999 fine silver is stamped, textured and fired with a hand torch into real silver jewelry.
• Goldsmithing and metalsmithing: Sawing, filing, soldering and polishing 333 gold or 935 silver – the most hands-on way to make jewelry.
• Wire jewelry and wire wrapping: Wire is bent into chains, pendants or settings for stones.
• Polymer clay, resin and metal stamping: Earrings, pendants or friendship bracelets made from modelling clay, resin or stamped metal.
