Metal Clay World Conference Globe2007 Metal Clay World Conference

Conference Presenter – Carol Babineau

Carol Babineau Art has been a moving factor all my life. Art Clay Studio, LLC, became a reality in 2005 and has been successful ever since. I present metal clay classes and workshops predominantly in Nashua, NH in a large airy studio in the Picker Building, one of the historic fabric mill buildings in Nashua’s millyard. My classes are sought after and fresh. I am always excited and interested in meeting and working with each and every student.

I have written numerous articles on metal clay projects, and have published a book, "Metal Clay Beyond the Basics," through Kalmbach Publishing.

My work is also featured in other Artist publications.
  • Setting Gemstones Into Metal Clay by Lorrene Baum-Davis
  • 1000 Jewelry Details by Sandra Salamony
  • Picture Yourself Creating Metal Clay Jewelry by Tammy Powley


  • I am an award winning member of the Art Clay Society, an Aida Certified Art Clay Master Instructor, Juried member of the Dunstable Artisans, a State Juried Member of The League of NH Craftsmen, a member of the Enamel Guild, Northeast, and PMC Certified Levels I & II.

    Power Point Presentation PDF

    This presentation will take you through the many types of clasps and closures available today. Making them from Metal Clay, with its unique ability to be molded and shaped to any configuration imaginable, is just half the fun. Once you have the basic concept of the form and design you would like to create, you can then take that idea to its fruition. I will show you the many possibilities of what you can do, and then we’ll let your imagination and good taste take over! You will never look at the "other" end of your beautiful jewelry creation in the same light again.
