Classes will be conducted in person.
Description: This is a great beginner class to introduce you to wire weaving. Because of the fluid organic design each bracelet naturally comes out different allowing you to put your own personal touch to it. We will learn how to create a tight even weave, particularly around curves. After building your woven base you will learn how to use granulation techniques successfully on top of the weave without melting through the weave. Then bezel set a small cabochon.
