Fresh fall + spooky pottery has arrived at The Finishing Stone!🍂🎃

✨ Hammered Silver Hoop Workshop!✨

Thank you to all the lovely ladies (and Joe!) who came out and created with me yesterday! I loved working through the process with you and seeing everyone make something uniquely theirs.

It was amazing that everyone came from completely different towns to come together, meet new people, and create something beautiful. And honestly, that’s what these classes are all about — connection, community, and creating!

I’m so grateful that I get to share my craft with you all. My heart is full!❤️

If you’ve been thinking about signing up for an upcoming workshop, now’s the time! Spots are filling up, and I’d love to see you at the bench.

Come learn some silversmithing, make some jewelry, and create something with your own two hands.

See you at the bench! 🔨

I’m getting SO excited for tomorrow’s Hammered Hoop Earrings Workshop! ✨ I can’t wait to see everyone at the bench and watch those little pieces of silver turn into something completely their own!

There are still a few spots available for some of my upcoming workshops, too! Come hang out, learn the foundations of traditional silversmithing, and most importantly—create something with your own two hands! 🤍

See you at the bench! 🔨

Fresh batch of one-of-a-kind stones on my bench today! ✨

Honestly, this is one of my FAVORITE parts of being a silversmith—especially as someone with a geology degree! I never sketch my designs out ahead of time. I just pick a stone, start working, and let the stone tell me what it wants to become. Sometimes I have an idea… and sometimes the stone completely takes over!

So stay tuned to see what these beauties turn into! 👀✨

I’ll be hanging out at my jewelry bench in the store today, working away! We’re open 12–4 (or maybe later!). Come say hi, and check out all the amazing work from our other local artists!

This round of classes is filling up fast! Tomorrow I’ll be working on another round of classes for October, but the first October class is officially posted and ready for sign-ups!

✨ October 4th — Silver Bar Earrings ✨

Come learn how to make one of my beloved designs while learning the foundations of traditional metalsmithing!

If you’ve been contemplating signing up for a class, don’t hesitate! Many of the current classes are nearly maxed out. I intentionally keep these workshops small so everyone gets the one-on-one guidance and hands-on instruction needed to really learn and feel comfortable with the techniques.

Come learn, have fun, and leave with something you made with your own hands! 🤍
