BEGINNER LEVEL

Got wire skills? Not really? No worries – We’re here to help! Whether you want to learn the basics or are looking to hone your skills, this technique-packed class will take you through the ins and outs of wire, step by step. We’ll start with the fundamentals of simple, and bound loops, and move on to how to deal with those tricky top-drilled briolettes. If that weren’t enough, you will also learn how to create earrings, pendants and charms, custom bead chains, and spiraled head pins.

Student Supplies:
• 8mm round glass beads, approx. 10-15, that will fit on 22g wire
Note: we will NOT be making a completed piece; beads are for practicing techniques only, therefore beads that match is not required. You just want nothing smaller than 8mm
• 1 spool 22 gauge craft wire for practice at home
• Glasses if you need them!

Supplies provided:
• Handout
• Practice wire
• Tools
