THANK YOU!

Join us for an incredible workshop on Electroforming with guest teacher Kristin Sullivant!Working with Agate stones, Kristin will show us how to collage unique components together followed by working with a chemical bath and solid copper to create incredible organic pendants! This 2-Day Workshop includes your choice of kits to create your own Electroformed pendant and necklace. We'll be playing with organic material like leaves and twigs, plus stampings and more! We'll also have a few bonus projects during the Electroforming Workshop - we'll be playing with copper wire and more! Kristin Sullivant has been creating with Electroforming for many years in Joplin, MO and her work is extraordinary! She has taught many classes for Dry Gulch Beads & Jewelry, and we are so excited to host her for our first Electroforming Workshop! Visit Kristin's Laboratory socials on Instragram! |
