Fold Forming metal is similar to origami for paper, but is used for creating jewelry and sculptures rather than animal shapes.

In this beginning class, we will discuss the properties of metal and how to do a simple, single fold to create texture and interest. Students will learn to anneal (temporarily soften) the metal with a torch, use various hammers to intensify the fold lines, use stamps to make designs, use pliers to create ripples, and turn sterling wire into ear wires.
