Fancy Findings: Pin Backs and More!
Sunday, May 20 & Monday, May 21, 2018 / 10:00 am – 4:00 pm
In this workshop, students will learn the basic anatomy of a successful pin back as well as the difference between left-handed and right-handed mechanisms. Students will learn how to make both single and double stem pin backs with corresponding catches and also learn how to make a converter that will easily allow brooches to be worn as pendants. The mechanisms that will be shared are simple and clean solutions that can easily be integrated into any design.
