Jessica Milum Lost Wax Casting | From Wax to Metal - April 25

In this beginner-friendly workshop, students will explore the lost wax casting technique by designing and carving their own wax pendant, ring, or small object. After the session, Jess will cast each piece in sterling silver, finish it, and return it to you within two weeks.

1. Welcome & Introduction (15 minutes)
2. Design & Sketching (15 minutes)
