🔥🔨 Have you ever wondered how blacksmiths turn hard metal into amazing creations? Today, Silly Miss Lily is becoming a BLACKSMITH for a day at the Dragon Forge Experience at the Texas Renaissance Festival!
Join us for a fiery, hands-on learning adventure as we discover the amazing world of blacksmithing, explore real blacksmith tools, and learn how heat can make strong steel easier to bend, twist, and shape!
And guess what? They even have DRAGONS that are part of the forge! 🐉🔥
With help from experienced blacksmiths, we’ll learn how to safely use special tools, heat steel in the forge, and twist and turn metal to create our very own handmade pieces, including pendants and a wand!
We’ll discover what a forge is, why blacksmiths use hammers and other tools, and how people have been using fire and metalworking skills to make useful objects for hundreds of years.
