Ring a Month theme for September
The ring a month challenge for jewellers continues to grow. Thanks for being a part of it. If you haven’t already joined you are more than welcome to start with September!
How do I join in?
Everyone is welcome using any material or jewellery making discipline, whatever your level of experience, wherever you are in the world.
Join the private Facebook group here and post a picture of your ring when you’re done. Work in progress shots are also welcome as are blog posts on your work

Share your ring on your Instagram account with the hashtag #ringamonth2020 and you’ll be shared in the stories. A selection of rings will also be shared as a regram on the account.
You are welcome to join in on both! And please do like and comment on people’s work. This is a supportive community and that has been great to see.
So here it is, the theme for September is NEW.
Every other month I choose a technical theme and this month it is new. Your challenge for this month is to do something you haven’t done before. You can find some ideas to get you started below:
A new material that you’ve not worked with before e.g. plastic, gold
A new gemstone you’ve never used
A new technique you’ve not tried e.g. keum boo, wax carving, granulation, enamelling, engraving, mixed media
You can be as daring or as safe as you like! Alternatively, if you aren't inspired by this theme, make a ring of your own design. The challenge is to make a ring a month, the theme is optional. But please only share a ring made in September, rings made previously don’t count!
I look forward to seeing what you make!
