In this fun class you will combine dichroic glass, which has an ethereal, sparkly, and opal-like quality with silver metal clay to make amazing fine silver and glass pendants. Although our studio kiln is necessary to work with silver metal clay and glass, Sherry & Holly will demonstrate torch firing so you can continue to work with silver metal clay at home if you wish. Materials fee paid to instructor in class includes silver metal clay, use of silver paste and syringe, appropriate stone, disposables, and use of tools.

Â
I have a BS degree in art education, and taught art in the Stevens Point school district for over 20 years. I am a jewelry designer, using beads, chains, and vintage elements in my designs. I became interested in metal clay when I took a Shake Rag class years ago, taught by Sherry Viktora. Since then I have taken every class she has taught, and continue to explore the medium in my home studio. I am excited to share my love of this medium.
