But since you'll be at JOGS, I encourage you to explore the gem show and shop for a stone that really speaks to you! If you find something you love, you're welcome to bring your own pair of 10mm round cabochons to use for your earrings. From there, you'll learn how to use a torch to solder your earrings, a hammer to create fun textured fringe, and a bezel rocker to set your stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring this workshop, you'll learn and practice:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoldering sterling silver\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHammering and texturing sterling silver fringe\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSetting cabochon gemstones\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAssembling and finishing your earrings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYou'll also receive my \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSoldering Tip Guide\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMetal Buying Guide\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e to take home, so you'll have helpful resources to reference as you continue your metalsmithing journey after class.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo previous metalsmithing experience is necessary.
