Looking for unique birthday party ideas, bachelorette activities, or creative small group experiences in the Portland metro area? This private jewelry-making workshop brings a professional studio directly to your home or event space for an unforgettable hands-on workshop where you’ll make handmade, custom, mixed metal earrings!
Led by Emma, a friendly and experienced instructor, you'll learn the art of cold-connection jewelry making — a technique that joins different metals together without soldering. During this relaxed three-hour workshop, you'll design and assemble your own custom earrings or jewelry pieces using beautiful combinations of copper, brass, and sterling silver.
Explore a curated collection of premium jewelry materials, decorative components and unique metal shapes to create a design that reflects your personal style. You'll also have access to a charm bar filled with playful accents, from stars and hearts to flowers and nature-inspired details, allowing you to add meaningful finishing touches to your piece.
No experience is required, and all materials, tools, and findings are included. This mobile jewelry-making class offers a creative way to gather, connect, and leave with beautiful handmade jewelry you'll be proud to wear!
Please Note:
This mobile craft class is completely clean, smoke-free, and safe! All the host needs to provide is a sturdy work table and chairs for the guests. I bring all individual work trays, hand tools, multi-metal blanks, charms, and clean riveting gear straight to your home.

FAQ

Does this jewelry making class require an electrical outlet or create any mess inside my house?
Not at all! This is a completely torch-free and plug-free workshop. We rely entirely on specialized hand tools, punches, and riveting blocks. There are no chemicals, open flames, or heavy cords, making it exceptionally safe and clean for any indoor dining table or kitchen island. The only noise is the cheerful tapping of small jewelry hammers!
What kind of table or workspace do I need to provide for the group?
We rely on you to provide the main work table (like a sturdy dining table or kitchen island) and chairs where your guests will sit to do the work. I bring an individual work tray for each student, which keeps the metals and tools organized in their own spaces, leaving your table completely protected. Unlike our soldering classes, we do not need close access to wall outlets or any extra tables! If extra surface space is needed, I can always bring a 4-foot or 6-foot folding table to expand our workspace, but the host must provide the seating.
Can we drink alcohol and enjoy refreshments during this class?
Yes, absolutely! Because this class doesn't use open flames or hot electric soldering irons, it is a very relaxed workshop. While we always ask that guests remain mindful while using sharp wire cutters and hand pliers, you are more than welcome to serve wine, cocktails, snacks, and refreshments to enjoy throughout the entire session.

Are there any specific safety or clothing requirements for this class?
There is no dress code or clothing requirements for this class! Because we are only working with clean hand tools and metal sheets, you can wear whatever you feel most comfortable in. We only ask that if your hair is chin-length or longer, you bring a hair tie, headband, or clip to keep it out of your forward eyesight so you can see your fine detail-work clearly!

My jewelry journey actually started by complete accident! I had signed up for what I thought was a miniature sculpture class, but when I walked into the room, it turned out to be a jewelry making workshop instead. From the very first time I picked up a torch and soldered a metal seam close, I was completely hooked by the magic of the craft. That single pivotal moment changed everything for me. I went on from there to study at the Gemological Institute of America, earning my credentials as a GIA Graduate Jeweler and spending the next 15+ years working professionally in fine jewelry manufacturing, custom design, and bench repairs.
Today, my jewelry world is beautifully split into two creative passions. When I am designing one-of-a-kind treasures and handmade gifts, my creative heart plays over at my Etsy shop, Fire Opal Finch. But as much as I love creating alone at my bench, I found that my absolute favorite part of the jewelry industry is sharing these mesmerizing techniques with others. I love teaching because I get to recreate that exact spark I felt in my very first accidental class—watching a student light a jeweler's torch for the first time, see the solder flow, and realize, "Wow, I actually made this myself!"
What makes my classes special is that I completely remove the intimidating barriers of traditional jewelry schools. I load up my tools, specialized steel stamps, and safety torches to bring a fully equipped, professional metalsmithing studio straight to your kitchen table or party location. My goal is to create a welcoming, empowering space where you can unplug from your screens, work with your hands, and forge beautiful, physical memories with your family, friends, and loved ones. You don't need a single ounce of prior experience—just bring your curiosity, dress in your favorite natural fibers, and let's make something beautiful together!
