In this workshop Patrik will demonstrate at least 4 styles of chains in metal clay. Organic, sculptural, geometric, free form…you decide! You’ll earn proper sizing for bracelets, plus how to make toggle clasps that enhance the design of your bracelet. 100 to 200 grams of your favorite clay will be needed for the workshop.
