Charm Social

  • Brimmer & Heeltap 425 NW Market St Seattle, WA, 98107 United States (map)

Join us for a unique, hands-on creative series hosted at Brimmer & Heeltap and taught by local metalsmith Sam of Samantha Slater Studio! In this workshop, you get to decide exactly what kind of charm you want to create. You will carve a one-of-a-kind charm out of jeweler's wax—whether that is something cute and silly like a mushroom, or something thoughtful and sentimental like a heart. Over two distinct sessions spaced one month apart, you will transform your hand-carved wax design into a finished, wearable brass charm necklace or wrap bracelet. Click here to buy tickets for one or both nights.
