October 26, 2019 Saturday 1pm to 5pm , Wire Wrapping Class NEW 101, Big Gauge Copper Pendant, Perfectly Twisted Jewelry at Lithos - Mineral, Fossil, Meteorite, Book and Hobby Shop, Arvada, Colorado
You are purchasing a seat into class.
In this class, students will learn how to create a gorgeous wire wrapped pendant, using large, round copper wires and traditional wire wrapping techniques. This class is for the very beginner student who has never wire wrapped before, or students who have minimal wire wrapping experience. It’s great also for those who want to take their ambitious beginner skills to the next level and work with larger wires!
I will also provide an alternate wire size if you don't think your hands can handle the larger wires. This class is also designed to give the beginner student an introduction into basic symmetry (making both sides of the pendant the same in mirror image).
This technique of wire wrap allows for designs to be as simple or as abundant in swirls and curls, as you desire.
- Learn the basics of how to measure around a stone and determine how much wire is needed to complete a wrap.
- Learn how to create beautiful design for the front and backside of a cabochon and learn how to create a professional and modern bale of any size.
- Learn basic symmetry.
- In class, we will also cover the basic hand tools used to create wire jewelry and how to use those tools properly.
Price of class includes material kit and tools for use while in class.
