SUMMARY OF PROJECTS AND HOW TO USE THIS COURSE
In this online course I will walk you through all of the steps that I use to accomplish a bezel set ring with a simple border, as well as a four additional embellishments that you can use to explore your personal creative style.
The format of the online course has allowed me to give you SO MUCH more detailed information than I am able to convey during my in-person workshops.
First, I go through all of the details of how to accomplish the simplest version of the project. Then, when I go through the four added embellishments, I will show you additional variations for soldering techniques too.
Added embellishments include: stamping your backplate, cutting and filing flush next to your bezel to get a smooth and seamless look, making and attaching decorative balls, and adding a wire to to your backplate create a shadowbox element.
Please ALWAYS READ THE TEXT below the videos because that is where I will include important clarifying information or some various tips to make it easier for you.
I do my best in these lessons to make this as simple and easy to understand as possible, but please understand that this is just ONE way to achieve these results and it is what has worked for me over the years. You should feel empowered to take this information and do your own experimentation and to find what works best for you. If something I am doing is not working for you then PLEASE come up with an alternative way that works better for you.
Remember, there is no exact right way to do any of this. Use this as a starting point and create your own way.
And the most important thing of all: HAVE FUN! Don't take any of this too seriously at the beginning of your journey. Know that it takes practice and with time and repetition you will get the hang of it.
