Intro to Basic Wire Wrapping for Jewelry Making

This class is a no experience necessary introduction to the art of jewelry making. During these two hours (over two weeks), I will demonstrate selecting appropriate materials, how to use basic jewelry making tools and wire wrapping techniques to create two pairs of sterling silver earrings. The required materials will be enough to create a pair of simple drop earrings and a pair of chandelier earrings, with a little extra to allow for practice. Lovely, stylish glass beads will also be included in the student’s choice of cool or warm palate.

Have you always thought embroidery was for grandmother’s in rocking chairs….cross stitching patterns of kittens. Susan has put together a 4 Lesson workshop to break tradition and get your creative juices flowing with lots of colored thread, a fun printed back ground that you create and a simple Crewel needle.
