Students will learn multiple methods for creating their own style of ceramic jewelry, from necklaces, earrings, beads and more! Using a variety of stamps and textures, students can cut out and decorate simple elegant pieces, or even sculpt their favorite objects. Students will learn how to place wire or cut holes for proper placement on necklace chains and earring backings. Once pieces are constructed, students will get to paint their jewelry using a variety of colorful glazes.
