CLASS DESCRIPTION
Spinner rings are all the rage. These rings have an outer band which spins freely around the ring. The action of turning the outer band is said to produce a special 'calming' effect which dispels anxiety and worries. Some say the design is based on ancient Tibetan prayer wheels.
Make a unique sterling silver spinner ring in this four hour workshop. Materials will be provided by the instructor.

• Optivisor and/or magnifying glasses, if you have them
