Etched Earrings

Special Event | Available

Draw on metal and create unique earrings in this one-time workshop well suited for beginners and advanced students alike. Students will take a design of their own and using a non-toxic saltwater etching technique, etch the design into the surface of sheet metal. After etching, students will solder earring posts to the backs of their designs. Using a patina, students will then darken the metal and sand back the highpoints to make their design pop. Students will create a finished set of earrings they can take home at the end of the workshop. This workshop could be a good fit for those interested in 2D artmaking and want an introduction into a handful of basic metalsmithing processes. 

  • • Please bring a notepad and something to write with.
    • It is recommended that you come with drawings, shapes, or simple photo tracings you would want to use as imagery for your earrings, fitting within the dimensions of 1”x2” or smaller.
    • All supplies are included with enrollment
