  • Soldering Steel Bangles and Hoops

    You are going to love learning how to make these awesome bangles and hoops with the fun & creative guidance of our own Funky Joann!  Using 16g steel wire, a.k.a. rebar or iron, you will learn to solder a bangle bracelet with a beautiful bead and make smaller hoops for earrings.  We will finish the piece and seal it.  Tips and techniques for working with this inexpensive material and translating the technique to copper or silver will be shared. Please bring a bead of your choice with a hole large enough to accommodate 16g wire.  If time permits, additional pieces may be soldered.  Instructor will supply the wire, solder, flux, torch, fire block and solder tool.

    $20, plus $25 material fee to instructor
