DEADLINE: 19/04/2025

We will cover the critical features of a well-functioning pin mechanism. A Facebook group will be created for this workshop. All of our online workshops are recorded, and with the purchase of the seat in the class, you have access to the recording(s) between workshop sessions as well as for 45 days after the workshop ends.
Proper tension and design are key to creating brooches that are truly meant to be affixed to clothing and worn on the body. Beginning with the right materials, we will craft a double and single pin mechanism, with several options to try for each. Fabricating, spacing, soldering, and sharpening for all components will be covered. You will be challenged to consider, invent, and execute new pin solutions beyond the course.
When: April 19 & 26, 2025. 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm.
Cost: $145.00.
