Welcome
to the Academy

A place to learn and make your own jewelry from wax to finished in silver at your own pace from your kitchen table

The online Academy is where you can learn the techniques, processes and knowledge behind making your own jewelry with wax and the Lost Wax Casting method. Follow the complete journey from idea to finished silver, or choose a focused course when there is just one part of the process you want to learn.

From idea to finished silver | The complete journey

If you want to learn how all the pieces fit together, the Wax to Shine course takes you through the complete process.

From developing your idea and working with wax, to preparing your piece for casting, turning it into silver and finishing the final piece.

Wax to Shine is a self paced course, which includes all the practical information. After the course you are able to create your own wax jewelry pieces and have them finished in silver, all by hand without expensive tools from your own kitchen table. Find the link below to guide you through which technique (Wax Carving or Wax Build Up) is the best fit for you.

WAX TO SHINE COURCES

You don't have to learn it all at once | Individual cources

Maybe you've already made jewelry in wax. Maybe you've had something cast but don't yet know how to finish it. Or perhaps there is one particular part of the process you want to explore more deeply.

The individual courses let you learn exactly what you need, or simply follow your curiosity.

After learning online | Start making in the Atelier

You can also use the individual courses to fill in the parts you are still missing before joining the Atelier Sessions. Once you have the basic process under your hands, from making in wax through casting and finishing your own silver piece, you can bring that knowledge into the Atelier and start developing your own work.
