About:
Create your own personalized piece of metal jewelry as a lasting souvenir from Pole Con 2025! In this hands-on class, you’ll learn the basics of metal stamping, bending, and finishing to create a unique bracelet, pendant, ring, earrings, wine charm, or keychain. Want to wear your creation during a performance or class? Attach your custom pendant to your heels for an extra flair!
Choose from a variety of metal shapes—heels, legs, hearts, pole positions, and more—and explore different textures and decorative elements. Personalize your piece by stamping letters and numbers to capture a pole mantra, favorite move, or future goal. You can also experiment with symbols and abstract shapes to design your own unique stamped image. Or, keep it simple with “Pole Con 2025” as a sleek and stylish reminder of your experience.
All of my handmade jewelry is designed to endure—from high-energy pole sessions to everyday adventures—so you’ll leave this class with a durable, one-of-a-kind creation that holds your Pole Con memories. No prior metalsmithing experience is needed and all supplies are provided— just bring your creativity!
