About
Feel like a metalsmithing artist as you learn how to add hammer texture to metal, stamp a word of choice, rivet two different metal pieces together, and form the metal into a gentle curve for the wrist. Then add a patina to bring out the texture. You'll finish the bracelet by learning to knot a variety of different types of beads on waxed linen. There won't be another bracelet quite like it in the world!

Through the years she has collected skills in many areas, from woodworking with her father and quilting and sewing with her mother, to learning to knit and crochet. Michelle went to college for studio art and, during her last semester, took a class in glassblowing, which led to a love of fire and glass. She studied glass torchwork for several years then decided to play with fire in a different way and started metalsmithing. Michelle enjoys designing and making jewelry and never passes up an opportunity to learn new techniques and hone current skills.
