Forging the Spoon
If you are in the Austin, Texas area, join me for a weekend workshop at the
Creative Side Jewelry Academy on January 5 - 6, 2013 from 10am - 6pm.
I will be teaching a hands-on workshop on how to forge a spoon. We will
explore different hammer blows, tapering, thickening, splitting, sinking,
planishing, texturing, and other surface finishing methods. The workshop
will end with an Ice Cream Social, the perfect way for us to test our
creations!
