One of my favorite jewelry techniques to teach is wax carving, because it's relatively simple to do at home and you can get away without using too many tools to create handmade jewelry. Since we've been spending so much time at home like most everyone else right now, I've been teaching online classes from my kitchen table in basic wax carving lessons. It started as a way to encourage people to be creative with all of this time at home, but honestly it's always been something I've wanted to do. For the past 10 years, I've been teaching jewelry classes at many studios in NYC on techniques like wax carving, silversmithing, jewelry business & production and many other techniques. Since I had my son a bit over 2 years ago, I haven't had as much time to devote to teaching.
