Your kit will include all of the materials for all the projects. The kit cost will cover the cost of all supplies for the workshop projects, including specific materials such as vintage silverware, wire, cabochons, beads, vintage costume jewelry pieces, findings, consumables, use of tools and all workshop handouts. Each student will make 2-3 pieces of beautiful “Silver Wear” jewelry in the 4 hour workshop.
