CCRMC 2025 Fiesta of Gems Workshop

In this introductory workshop you will learn the basics of wax carving for jewelry using simple, beginner-friendly tools. Focus on tools and techniques you can use at home to continue developing your skills and create beautiful work. You’ll get hands-on experience cutting and shaping wax to create your own unique pendant design, which will be cast in bronze and mailed to you within a month after the workshop.

Some of the techniques you’ll explore include: transferring and sketching designs onto wax, using tools to carve out form/detail, shaping/smoothing carving wax, preparing for casting.
