Wild Sunflower Silver Workshop Policies & Non-Negotiables
1. Cancellations & Refunds
- All sales are final.
- You may transfer your spot to a friend if you notify me at least 24 hours before class.
- If I must cancel, you’ll receive a full refund or the option to move to a future class.
2. Finished Pieces & Turnaround
- Your wax will be cast and polished after class. Please allow 2–3 weeks for pickup or shipping.
- Each piece is handmade and may have subtle variations.
3. Casting & Design Limitations
- Occasionally, a wax may break, or a casting may not turn out perfectly. This is part of the handmade process.
- Delicate or intricate designs may not survive casting exactly as carved. In such cases, you may choose:
- Simplified Version: You’ll personalize one of my existing designs—making thoughtful modifications so it truly feels like your own—or choose from a selection of ready-to-cast designs.
- Future Credit: Apply the value toward a future workshop or custom piece.
- Partial Materials Credit: For rare situations where neither option works.
4. Studio Safety
- Wear closed-toe shoes and tie back long hair.
- No open flames or chemicals handled by students — I handle all casting on-site.
- Please avoid bringing unregistered guests or children.
5. Age Requirement
- Adults (18+) are welcome. Teens 14–17 may attend with a participating adult.
6. Accessibility
- The workshop space is located in my home studio. I do have two small dogs; they are friendly and may come in to say hi. Contact me for accessibility needs.
7. Late Arrivals
- Class starts promptly; late arrivals may need to keep pace with the group.
8. Liability / Safety Reminder
- By registering, you acknowledge that jewelry-making involves hand tools and agree to follow safety instructions.
9. Photos & Social Media
- I may share class photos/videos unless you opt out before class.
