{6/17} Stacker Rings with Crooked Trails Silver

with Megan of Crooked Trails Silver

There’s something satisfying about creating jewelry by hand — shaping metal, adding texture, and walking away wearing something you made yourself.

In this hands-on metalsmithing class, Megan of Crooked Trails Silver will guide students through the process of creating their own stacker rings from start to finish. Students will learn foundational jewelry-making techniques including measuring, filing, soldering, shaping, and texturing metal bands while creating a custom set of handcrafted rings.

Students will create their own handcrafted stacker rings using sterling silver, gold-filled, or patterned silver wire. Materials will be selected and paid for during class, with most students spending approximately $15–$25 depending on the number and style of rings they choose to make.

With a small-group format and guided instruction throughout, this class is designed to feel approachable, creative, and encouraging for complete beginners while still offering plenty of room for creativity and customization.
