Problem Solving in Fabrication

Location: The Bead House Studio
Level: Intermediate
Class Fee: $250.00 + materials

Description:
Have you ever sketched a great piece of jewelry, but you're not quite sure how to accomplish it? Or do you sometimes struggle coming up with design ideas? Discover how traditional fabrication techniques can be used in non-traditional ways to resolve problems. We will also discuss design generation and wearability.
This is a class in thinking as much as it is in making. It will work best if participants are willing to bring their fabrication problems up for group discussion.
Silver soldering and basic tool skills are needed.
