PJ Tool Jewelry Presents:
Powder-coating Party!
This class has sold out the last several years, so be sure to reserve your seat early! And don't let the image fool you — this year we'll be playing with new powder colors and a wider variety of blank shapes.
B191879 — Tuesday, June 4, 2019 • 9am-4pm (1 hr break)
B192308 — Friday, June 7, 2019 • 9am-4pm (1 hr break)
Join a former editor from Art Jewelry magazine to learn about the latest jewelry-making trend in this playful, crash-course in powder coating. Using a simplified coating process of dipping instead of spraying the powder coat, you will learn how to easily add durable color to your metal jewelry. Theresa will also briefly introduce you to a fluidizing bed -- a simple tool that makes it easy to apply an even coat of powder on your metal. Learn how to prepare the metal blanks, apply the powder, and cure the powder to create a colorful bracelet, necklace, or an assortment of components to use in your jewelry designs.
