Workshops:
  • Invite your friends over for a hands on workshop. We will provide all of the materials for each workshop as well as written instructions for each person to take home. There will be a materials fee per person on some of the workshops. Hostesses get to learn for free and guests will have at least one finished project to take home.  Some of the planned workshops are:
          1. Basic jewelry techniques such as making wrapped loops, how to finish your jewelry with professional detail and flair, how to add clasps/toggles to your jewelry, sizing your jewelry for that perfect fit and how to care for your jewelry for a lifetime.

          2.  Working with Wire 101. This workshop will teach you how to work with a variety of wire such as sterling silver, copper, brass and craft wire by making simple elements such as "s" hook closures, easy to make chains, hook and eye closures and connectors. Learn the different gauges and shapes of wire and what they are used for. Learn the difference between hard, half-hard and soft wire and when to use each.

          3.  Working with Wire2.  Step up your skills from Wire 101 and learn how to make elegant chains, connectors, bead enhancement, and basic wire wrapping techniques.
