Earrings: Hinges, Hooks and More

$245.00

Requires a Minimum of 2 participants.

Earrings go with everything from athleisure to jeans to summer dresses. One of the most challenging parts of making earrings is coming up with the right finding that is secure, fits the design and doesn’t have a mass produced look. Learn how to fabricate earring hooks, hinged posts with snap closures for hoops and variations on both of these. Students will complete this course with several new pairs of earrings to wear home and the skills necessary to apply these findings in future work. The instructor will have basic materials included in the materials kit to complete 1 pair of simple hoop earrings and 1 pair of simple dangle earrings. However, students are encouraged to bring unfinished original earrings to class that are in need of the right closure.

Those that are not vaccinated should still wear a mask. Thank you.
