Class #103 - Traditional Tree of Life Pendant

In this class, students will learn how to create a beautiful, unique and wire sculpted, tree of life pendant.  Students will learn the tricks and tips of how to get fine detail in branches and roots and how to blend beautiful beads to create rich and colorful canopies.  Students will also learn how to create and hammer harden a pendant frame of their own design.

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.   These DIY trees are perfect gifts for yourself and loved ones, to mark family birthstones and/or reunions.  They are also an ideal way to use your beloved collection of beads and crystals!
