The class supply list is below and contains links to buy the supplies you need.

Hollow box rings can be large statement rings with complicated profiles, or simpler rings in organic and geometric shapes that either stand on their own or provide a platform for the addition of stones. No matter what the shape, they are lightweight and cost-effective, offering you the ability to create wonderfully three-dimensional work, without breaking the bank or your hand. As always, there are easy ways and hard ways to accomplish the construction of these multi-dimensional works. In this class, you will learn how to take advantage of the easy ways, and avoid the difficult pitfalls (like actual explosions, yes, for real!)

Skill Level: Beginner/Intermediate - Some jewelry-making experience is highly recommended, especially some familiarity with using a jeweler’s saw, and some practice soldering on your own.
