Soapstone is a very soft, porous, metamorphic rock that can be carved to make jewellery.
Working with pre-cut blanks, your teacher Brittany will show you how to carve soapstone into a wearable pendant or pair of earrings. Because soapstone is so porous you can also colour it to enhance your design. During class you will have time to carve a few pieces, followed by an optional chance to colour your soapstone with watercolours.
Each step of the way will have a demonstration, from designing to carving, colouring, and putting the final touches on to make your pendant a necklace.
All materials are included.
