Etched & Layered Cuffs
Diane Cook

Session Two
July 15 - August 25

Etched & Layered Cuffs made their debut in the Summer of 2010, when they were published in Stampington and Company’s, Belle Armoire Jewelry Magazine. Since then I have designed more than I can count. I have taught a total of seven classes at national retreats, as well as locally, and continue to have requests for more!

In this class, I will share my experience and special tips and tricks for preparing and stamping several styles and sizes of pre-made brass metal cuffs. I will walk you through the steps for successful etching, which will include important safety measures you should observe, including how to dispose of your enchant once finished. We will cover the different patina options, including a very special surprise patina not shared with any other of my Etched & Layered classes!

Once we cover the etching technique, we will move on to the all important next step…layering! This is the part of the project where you will really be able to soar with creative energy. I will share ways to layer your cuff, and will demonstrate using a vintage brooch, ear bob, shoe or dress clip, and brass filigree and charms…the possibilities are endless and continue to surprise me even today!

The attachment method will be done with a cold join technique I find useful and easy, and will transfer over to many projects far beyond your Etched & Layered Cuffs.

Having taught close to 100 students, I have seen countless examples of creativity that exists designing these timeless cuffs. So, come join me, as we Etch and Layer. You won’t be disappointed!
