Materials and Pricing The $1500 workshop fee covers both private studio sessions, instruction, casting preparation, and finishing. The $500 deposit secures your workshop spot and is applied toward the total workshop fee. The remaining balance of $1000 is due prior to your first session. Metal and gemstones are not included in the workshop fee and will be invoiced separately. Final metal cost is determined by the weight of your rings and your chosen metal. If you choose to include stones or engraving, these services are completed after your finishing session and will incur additional cost and production time. The Process This experience takes place over two private studio sessions, scheduled approximately one week apart. No prior jewelry making experience necessary! We will walk you through each step and provide all necessary tools and materials.  Session One: Wax Carving During your first session, you will carve your rings by hand using traditional wax carving techniques. You will determine your band shape, width, texture, and any stone placement. This session typically lasts 3 hours. After this session, your wax models will be cast into your metal of choice. Session Two: Finishing Your Rings in Metal Once your rings have been cast, you will return to the studio to refine, sand, and polish your rings to completion. This session typically lasts 3 hours. After your finishing session, we complete any final polishing and stone setting if applicable. Cancellation Policy Your $500 deposit reserves one of five available Spring workshop spots and is nonrefundable. If you need to reschedule your sessions, we require at least 14 days notice.
