Jewelry smithing

Silversmithing is a technique where objects are fabricated from sterling or fine silver. All sorts of objects can be made by a silversmith, including trophies; ornaments; utensils and of course…

It is possible to get started metalsmithing at home with a few simple tools. Best of all: they're inexpensive and don't take up a ton of space - meaning you can stash them in a box or drawer so they're out of the way when you're not using them! Instead of being something big and scary that requires a torch or workshop, you can actually make metal jewelry at your kitchen counter at the end of a long day. (Think of it as sewing's edgy older sister.)
