Fold Form Bangle workshop with Daisy Lee-Overton

Learn how to make a beautiful fold formed copper bangle in this one day workshop at Studio Budgie. Fold forming uses traditional hammer techniques to create depth and texture in the metal.
With guidance from your tutor, you will learn how to form, texture, hammer, file, polish and finish metal – you will make several test pieces initially that explore how to work with metal before making your bangle. You will then learn how to heat metal and fold it to create a decorative line down the centre, using hammers and punches to create texture before opening the fold to reveal the pattern. Finally, you will learn how to form the metal into a bangle and finish it to make a wearable piece to take away.
All materials are included in the cost of this workshop. Tea, coffee and biscuits are also included.
The workshop is fun and informative and no previous experience is needed but is also suitable for those with previous jewellery and metalworking experience.
