About the Instructor
HI, my name is Miranda. To me there is nothing better than a keepsake that you have poured yourself and your time into. I would have to say my crafting started with scrapbooking, I love being able to capture my memories with stories and color. I have been scrapbooking for quite some time, and I am always coming up with projects for my kids and I to do. I guess I need to thank my mother-in-law for my new love for PMC, she believed this would be something I would enjoy and do well with. Awhile back she gave me a gift certificate to take a PMC class and I fell in love with it from there. It is so cool to be able to make your ideas come to life in the jewelry. To mold and shape the clay when it is soft, and then the end result being a pure silver piece. My favorite part is the end result.
About the Workshop
This is the perfect way to experiment with PMC. Get a feel for the clay without diving into all the upfront cost of the tools and supplies needed. Learn whether or not this will be your new passion. In the classes we will experiment with different techniques, what you can use for tools, and just how far you can push the clay. Tools are provided. Classes will run from three to four hours. The classes will be on the small size for more one on one attention.
Charmed, I'm Sure
Beginning PMC class: Basic charms are the perfect way to start out. In this class we will learn the basics about working with PMC from clay form to the finished product. You will learn to create your own charms using different tools and methods. You can expect to make a two to three charms depending on the size. Should you choose, you can also add a stone to your charm.
Shower of Love
Beginning PMC class: In this case we will learn to incorporate PMC paper into our pieces. PMC paper is easy to work with and adds just a little more to your piece. We will be making a pendant with PMC and using PMC paper to embellish.
A Rose

Intermediate PMC class: In this class we will learn to add more dimension to our pieces We will be making the rose pictured here. This rose is sculpted mostly by hand with the use of only a few tools. While this takes a little more patience the end result is amazing.


Bead Charms

Intermediate PMC class: In this class we will learn to create these cute little bead charms. Learning to make these small charms is a great way to get a fill for making rings. While there are a few more steps to making these this will give you a feel for it. You can use my ideas for making the charms or bring ideas of your own. You should be able to make at least three of these charms in the class.
