Creating Beads with Pennies
Sat, February 26, 2022
10:00 AM - 2:00 PM
This is a great class for those interested in Metalsmithing! In this class students will create Copper Penny Beads using pennies from 1982 and earlier. These pennies were still made of copper and can withstand the temperatures needed to solder pennies together to make our special beads. Students will likely make several beads as they learn to hone their soldering skills. Students will also learn to use many silversmithing skills, and will become comfortable using a torch, dapping block, hammers, and files to create a Penny Bead necklace!
Cost of the class is $120, a $20 deposit is required. Please see web site for more information.
