1:00 - 5:00pm

Location: Plymouth Meeting

The ginko leaf is always a favorite design motif, and in this class we take it up a notch by adding sparkling gemstones to a fine silver leaf. You will learn several ways to set fireable gemstones of various shapes and sizes, how to work with a silicone mold, how to create fine tendrils of clay and syringe, and how to design an invisible bail. The pendant may be worn alone, or used to enhance your beadwork, creating a one of a kind necklace that you will love.
