Riveted Charms & Pendants

Learn how to stack and join metal stampings or cutouts using rivets - a cold-connection technique that can take jewelry-making skills to the next level. Class will review easier methods using pre-made rivets, as well as the process of making and using rivets from heavy-gauge wire. Students will be using hammers and bench blocks; this is a very industrial process! Metal charms in a variety of shapes and sizes will be provided in the class kit.
