Mother’s Day Weekend Special
*Participants can register for individual dates*
5/9 or 5/10
Time: 11 AM - 1 PM
Class Description:
This hands-on workshop invites students to create their own stack of custom metal bangles from start to finish. Using simple tools and techniques, participants will shape, hammer, and personalize multiple bracelets, creating a meaningful set perfect for everyday wear or as a special Mother’s Day gift.
Perfect for beginners, friends, mothers and daughters, or anyone looking for a creative and memorable experience. Ideal for those who want to make something personal and wearable in a relaxed, social setting.
Students will learn how to measure and size bangles, shape and form metal using mandrels and hammers, and add texture through hammering techniques. The workshop also introduces cold connections and simple finishing methods like adding charms, stones, or chains, to create polished, wearable pieces.
Each participant will leave with a stack of 2–3 handmade bangles they created themselves, along with foundational jewelry-making skills they can continue to explore.
NOTE: Silver is available for purchase for participants who want to make silver bangles. Please select the Add-On below. Orders for silver must be placed before April 24th.
Teacher Info:
I am a silversmith and founder of Ninimosi Jewelry. Working from a small home studio in Jenkintown, PA, I hand-forge each piece using recycled precious metals and traditional metalsmithing techniques. My work is rooted in personal history, slow fashion, and the belief that jewelry making is a form of art that creates wearable art while expresses individual personality. My goal is to spread traditional jewelry-making skills, ensuring the craft remains alive and human in an increasingly AI-driven world.
