Whether you’re completely new to wax carving or have some experience and want to expand your skills. There’s a class available for you!
Wax carving is a fun jewellery making technique where you transform an unassuming piece of wax into a beautiful piece of jewellery! Learn to carve rings and 3-dimensional shapes. Classic jewellery pieces and bold statement jewellery. Anything is possible in wax! In the online classes, you learn how to carve your own piece of jewellery from wax. Ready to be cast in the metal of your choice. Classes include videos, showing you exactly how to make the piece of jewellery. Written handouts are provided. And every Monday I answer your questions. Curious what pieces of jewellery you can make?
What's new?
On the blog
Should I make this in wax or metal? It’s a decision you have to make every single time you make something. In the newest blog post, you can read through the things to consider when you’re making that choice!
Behind the scenes
The worst part of making a class is cleaning up my workspace when I finish! This is halfway through cleaning. Too embarrassed to show you the real mess!
With the classes
Yes!! There’s a new class available! In the swivel ring class you learn how to make rings with a central piece that can flip. One ring, 2 different sides to wear facing up! You learn all about making different kinds of ring shapes and styles and how to make a central section that can move.
Hi I'm Sandy!
I’m the CEO (Chief EVERYTHING Officer) here at Wax Carvers. I did my first jewellery making class in 2012 and haven’t looked back since. I didn’t fall in love with wax carving until 2018 though. Now wax carving is one of my main loves. And what do you do with love? You spread it around! That’s why I decided to teach wax carving! Make wax carving available to you so you can go ahead and fall in love with it yourself.
Do you want to know what tools you need to get started with wax carving? Do you want to know what wax color you should get? Do you want to know how you can set up a quick bench when you don’t have space for a dedicated one? All these topics and more are covered on the blog! A new post is published every other Tuesday. So you can keep coming back to learn more about wax carving.
