SILVERSMITHING 101 at TANK


We had our first lesson in silversmithing last night and it was so much fun! Cynthia had each of us come up with a bracelet design and then worked with us to make it a feasible project. It was nice to try something different but still feel at home in our own shop. My brain is all a flury with excitement and images of things I want to make.

We each started by cutting out a strip of sheet silver and then worked with it to start creating a pattern or shape.
