Roses are Forever Pendant

Our amazing instructors will demonstrate this fun, and very dimensional, pendant using Project X .999 Silver Clay.

Students will learn to sculpt with paste to create unique pendant components. They will then create hidden links in clay to connect the three components. The pendant can be torch or kiln fired and we will discuss firing support options.

Follow along at home or just watch for fun!
