During this class Karen will teach you how to make this beautifully feminine bracelet using Lucite beads! Lucite jewellery was very popular in the 1950s and 60s and has recently made a big comeback. You will be taught a basic bead stringing technique which, once mastered, will enable you to do multiple variations. This is a beautiful project which is suitable for the beginner as well as the more advanced beader. Bead mats and scissors will be provided.
Recycling is a topic dear to many hearts and in this class Jane will show you how not to throw things away and instead make them into wonderful, wearable little works of art! Using old photographs, business cards, magazine clippings etc you will learn how to make unique (and affordable!) pendants, drops and earrings. Earring wires will be supplied. A perfect class for the young and young at heart!
Yes - you can make these beautiful earrings! The wonderfully talented Ale will guide you through the process and before you know it you’ll be a wire working genius! Some previous experience of working with wire is preferable. Wire and earring wires will be provided.
This is the ideal class for beginners to Bead Weaving. Once you have mastered this most basic form of the spiral stitch the possibilities are endless. The ability to thread a very tiny needle will be a great advantage! Needles will be provided as will black/white/natural KO beading thread. Please bring your own thread if you require another shade.
In this class you will learn how to make felt from scratch using the most beautiful natural unspun wool.
