Make a bold statement without the weight with our intermediate metal clay earring project! Accentuate steel with bronze in this innovative design, perfect for those seeking a lightweight yet impactful accessory. Learn the techniques to construct solid earrings using formable steel clay, allowing you to create sturdy foundations for your jewelry. Once fired, the steel clay becomes lighter than traditional metals like silver, copper, or bronze, allowing you to use these heavier materials as embellishments rather than the foundation of your design. Embrace the versatility of metal clay and create striking earrings that defy expectations with their lightweight yet substantial presence.
Required Materials: Steel and bronze clay, 22 gauge nickel-chromium wire. See project for complete list.
Tools Needed: Craft sticks or playing card, rolling pin, circular cutter, clay shaper, set of diamond plated burs, round nose and chain nose pliers, sanding pad, Kiln. See project for complete list
