Intro
Are you the magpie always collecting pieces of rusty steel on the street? Are there bits of magnetic metal in your studio that you've tucked away, swearing that one day you'll clean them up to make a masterpiece? Enamelling is a great way to protect jewellery made from mild steel and is so easy to master. Bring your rusty recycled bits and bobs to Danaca Design in Seattle to learn the skills to turn these into beautiful and unique jewels.
Some jewelry making and enameling experience helpful.
