Mindful jewelry-making classes continue Jan. 11

Heidi Lowe Gallery invites community members to start the new year with intention and meaning by learning to make their own silver jewelry piece.

Classes are fun to do with friends or family, and make for a really special gift and experience. Offerings include rings of intention, stacker rings, and intention necklace with a stone. 

Students will discover and practice various metalworking techniques to learn how to make a wearable piece of personalized silver jewelry from start to finish in one session of about 2 1/2 hours.

“It is a perfect way to spend an evening learning something new, work with your hands and bring people together,” said Heidi Lowe, gallery owner.

During the intention necklace and rings of intention classes, students will each look inward to come up with a word of intention that embodies what they want to cultivate and focus on for life in the new year. The word of intention will be incorporated into a silver band ring or pendant with a stone setting. In the stacker ring class, students using various silver wires will make three different rings that can be worn separately or as a stack.

Beginners are welcome, and materials are included in the class price. Everyone will leave class with a finished handmade piece of jewelry.

Classes take place from 6 to 8:30 p.m., Thursdays. Students may choose individual sessions on the following dates: Jan. 25, intention necklace with a stone; Jan. 11 or Feb. 1, rings of intention; and Jan. 18 or Feb. 8, stacker rings.
