Learn tips and tricks on how to make a two tone, striped band in sterling silver and 18k gold. We will also accent this striped band with offset, tube set stones.  Students can bring their own stones: one measuring 4mm exactly, and the other measuring 2.5mm exactly. Baleigh will also have some available for additional monies. No tigers will be harmed in the making of this ring.

About the instructor    
Baleigh Acebo is the designer and goldsmith behind Acebo Jewelry.  Baleigh is a big believer in learning the foundational techniques as a jumping off point for creating well made, wearable art. Baleigh was trained at the North Bennet Street School’s Jewelry Making and Repair program in Bahston, MA.

Cancellation Policy

  • You may cancel up to 30 days prior to the start of the class and receive a full refund, less $25 processing. To cancel, send an email to info@bouldermetalsmiths.com.
  • Cancellations less than 30 days prior to the start date will not be refunded.
  • In the event we have to cancel a class, you will be notified prior to the start date and will be issued a full refund.
  • Registration is not transferrable. You may not sell your seat to another student.
  • If a class has multiple sessions, and you miss one, there is no make up opportunity and the instructor will not catch you up at the next class session. You may not join the next scheduled class, as there’s a maximum number of students for every class and it’s not fair to the other students.
  • Please plan extra time to find us if you’re coming to BoMA for the first time. If you are late to a class, the instructor will not catch you up. There’s a structured curriculum for every class and its not fair to other students to skip part of the curriculum to catch up a student who’s late.
  • Snow. Colorado has frequent snowstorms in the winter and does a good job maintaining their roads in the snow. Snowy weather is a regular occurrence in our area and most people are accustomed to traveling under such conditions. Classes will be cancelled only in the case of inclement weather conditions that would make class attendance unsafe. If the National Weather Services issues a Winter Storm Warning for the time  period of the class, we will cancel the class. https://www.weather.gov/bou/winterguide
  • By clicking on the “Buy Now” button and by paying the registration fee, you are agreeing to this cancellation policy.
  • No Exceptions.

Waitlist
If the class is full, send an email to info@bouldermetalsmiths.com with the name of the class, your name and ‘please add me to the waitlist’.
