Class Description: 

In this set of 4 classes, we will focus on the fundamentals of jewelry making and wire weaving techniques to help build our metal smiths to be come more self-sufficient. Our first class will focus on the common tools and used in wire weaving terminology, and supplies, as well as putting them to good use making our own findings. The second class will focus on several options of weaves and on weaving our base wires. The third class will be focusing on how to add stones to our projects and base wires. The final class will focus on putting all these things together and using all the creations we have made up to this point as one or even two whole pieces. If you have a stone or two at home you would like to use, please feel free to bring it on day one to see if they will work.
