Class #104 - Crystal 3D Tree Of Life Pendant

This is such a fun class!  Students will learn to create a beautiful Tree of Life pendant using a crystal point and canopy beads of their choice!  The tree of life is constructed completed around the crystal, holding to inside the branches of the tree.  The canopy beads are all natural gemstones and individually sew into place.  You will be taught a clever way to cover all the wire ends and leave your beautiful jewelry 'scratch' free!  We create the tree using natural copper wires.

The tree of life symbol crosses all cultures and stems back to our ancient ancestors. It represents wisdom, strength, prosperity, protection, beauty and connection to our Earth.

Copper is a balancing metal and has a healing property for body, mind and spirit. It provides a harmonic connection between the physical and astral bodies and is a great conductor of energy.

Copper was associated with the goddess Aphrodite/Venus in mythology and alchemy and is one of the oldest known metals used by humans. The alchemical symbol for copper is also the symbol of Venus and so embodies such characteristics as love, balance, creativity and feminine beauty.
