*This class has a prerequisite. Please see details below.

In this two-day class, you will learn how to make screen prints for enamel applications.

We will use the patterns and drawings to create screens for printing the pattern onto the enameled metal. We will kiln fire our enameled copper pieces then experiment with pattern layering and creating different textured surfaces that you can apply to your jewelry designs.

Students, please bring:

• A minimum of 2 black and white patterns 5.5" x 4.25"
• These can be black and white images of drawings you made, your kids made, or something from a design book.
