Are You Sick of Creating the Same Basic Earrings... And You’re Ready to Finally Turn Up The Heat on Your Skills?
You’ve nailed the earring basics. Simple ear wires, standard jump rings, saw pierced pendants - you can probably whip these up with your eyes closed. But now, you’re ready to take things a step further, and nudge your creations and skills to that next level.
You want to develop your unique style, and create unique and interesting pieces that customers will actually pay good money for! Pieces that are complex but still refined. Pieces that scream quality, professionalism, and class.
Learning to create hinges is the perfect way to infuse your pieces with a higher-end feel, and set them apart! The problem is… they can be a serious pain in the a** to tackle!
Adding Moving Parts to Your Jewelry Has… Well, A Lot of Moving Parts
Meaning, a lot of potential for meltdowns, mistakes, and materials wasted!
Perhaps you’ve tried tackling hinges before, but felt scared away by those trickier soldering techniques. Maybe you’ve been lured into buying expensive tools that are hard to use (and harder to justify to your partner too!). Perhaps you’ve taken a class, or watched a Youtube tutorial, only to find yourself attempting way-too-advanced hinged bangles with box clasps and other complex techniques, before understanding the basic hinge first.
If this sounds familiar, don’t stress - you don’t need to succumb to a life of jump rings and basic jewelry. With the right step-by-step instructions and support, you can create your own elevated pieces, with professional-AF moving parts, mechanical connections and clasps… and this class is the perfect place to start.

Meet Your Instructor:
Gustavo Paradiso!
Spoiler: you’re gonna love him
I’m thrilled to introduce Gustavo, our fabulous instructor making his Lucy Walker Jewelry debut in this Hinged Earring Basics class. Gustavo is a true maker with a background with not only jewelry, but also in watchmaking - meaning his attention to small details is always on point. He’s also taught hundreds of students from all over the world - from Patagonia to Portugal and the Middle East.
Gustavo is super approachable, irresistibly relatable, and makes even the trickiest techniques feel easy. I’ve worked closely with him to ensure this course has that signature Lucy Walker quality you expect. We’re talking clear lessons, detailed handouts, and everything you need to feel confident and creative. So while Gustavo will be your guide on this journey, know that I’m right there with you, cheering you on every step of the way!
Gustavo’s (More Official) Bio:
Gustavo Paradiso is a passionate jeweler from Patagonia, Argentina, where he draws inspiration from the stunning landscapes that surround him. His journey began early in his father’s watch shop, where he developed a love for working with tools and fine mechanical pieces. At just 20 years old, he opened his own watchmaking shop, eventually transitioning to exclusively jewelry making.
With over three decades of hands-on experience creating custom pieces for clients and a background in design from Buenos Aires, Gustavo has honed his technical skills and artistic vision. His work is often described as wearable sculpture, creatively combining various materials and forms into striking, functional designs.
Gustavo began his teaching career in 2008 in Patagonia. He is dedicated to sharing knowledge and empowering others to express their creativity through jewelry making. Gustavo has since shared his expertise with over 500 students across continents, including South America, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, and enriched the global jewelry community with his insights and skills. We can’t wait for you to learn from him in this class!
Enjoy This BONUS LESSON From Lucy:
How to Use a Foredom Hammer Handpiece
While Gustavo is taking the reins on this class, I’m getting in on the action too with a fun bonus lesson. You’ll learn how I prefer to rivet hinges using a foredom hammer handpiece with a modified anvil. This is the perfect technique for riveting hard to reach hinges with the ultimate control. I’m confident this will save you a heap of drama down the road!

Reviews
Anyone wanting to either start there jewelry making journey or progress further, this is the Course for you. In depth learning on every level. I can't stress enough how brilliant her classes are, you learn so much from her, and the creative kickstarters for me are always something that takes me out of my comfort zone. its a massively helpful online community, With every question answered super speedily.
Lucy is a gem of a teacher imparting valuable knowledge and patiently guiding you every step of the way, you can tell she genuinely wants the best for everyone. She makes you feel comfortable by creating a conducive environment for students to explore their creativity and hone their skills. I was sad when the class came to an end, it was an immensely enjoyable experience. I am looking forward to joining her next classes…
I discovered my love of jewelry making in early 2021 and found Lucy Walker’s Metalsmith Academy at the same time. Talk about the stars being in alignment for me as I went from absolute beginner to having the confidence to start my own handmade jewelry business within months. So empowering!! The course is brilliant with outstanding instruction - videos, handouts, step by step processes, super handy tips and more. The projects are motivating and well-sequenced to build skills steadily. The creative kickstarters are awesome for stretching your creativity - see my image. The encouragement from Lucy and her team and the other members is excellent and affirming. The course is excellent value for money and the opportunity to win prizes along the way is an added bonus. My only regret is that the Aussie/USD exchange rate is a killer. I finished much of the course content anyway, but am glad that Lucy shares a lot of content on YouTube so I still get my fix.
Prior to joining LWJA i was frustrated and trying to figure so much out all by myself. Now I've found my home and all the support I was looking for here at the academy. I've taken other classes online and in person but none compare to Lucy's clear instructions and extra close up video demonstrations. I'm still so surprised by how much value there is in the classes and the forum with Lucy's constant presence and mentorship alone. I am always able to get help with any project or skill whether it's from a class or not. Also, I've got access to Vennice's amazing rendering classes, all the free template and project exercises, vendor discount codes and so many more perks included in my membership! I've been a member for 3 years and continue to learn and find so much support from new classes, Lucy's mentorship on the forum and the community at LWJA. And the icing on the cake is Lucy's frequent give aways, awards and competition which have more than paid for my membership! I'm really lucky to have found such an amazing group to be a part of!
I joined Lucy’s metalsmith academy when it first opened and it was the best decision I’ve ever made. When I joined all I could make was simple silver rings, self taught. I really wanted to learn how to set gemstones and because of the clear, concise tutorials I can now flush set, bead set, prong set and bezel set! Before this I used to spend hours searching YouTube but there was either too much waffle ???? or not clear enough footage of what they were doing. And to top it off, everyone at the academy including members are so, so friendly ????????
