Replica Repousse Bangles
I am SO looking forward to my weekend teaching, at The Prairie. I've got some really exciting classes to offer you guys and I can hardly wait to share them with ya'll! The retreat begins Thurs, Oct. 25 and runs through Sun., Oct. 29.
If you love working with metal, I have a few surprises in store in my bangles class, on Friday. We'll be cutting, filing, shaping, texturing (so excited about this texturing technique!) riveting and wire working. Whew, what did I leave out?
Curiosity Keeper
Saturday, I'll show you the new class sample for my Curiosity Keeper necklace. This is a terrific class, packed with wire working technique.
I'll also teach you all of my secrets for working with steel wire and...a fabulous link that you're going to love. I've taken this necklace with me when I travel to teach and always get requests to teach it. This is the debut of this class and I'm looking forward to seeing how you like it!
Sunday, I'm teaching one of my favorite classes...An Equisite Fusion. I love teaching this one because the students are so successful with their projects. They just make beautiful things.
There's a lot to do in this class...we'll be cutting, filing and riveting but also soldering our own freeform bezels and filling them with resin.
I have to tell you, being at The Prairie is a real retreat experience. Rachel Ashwell has the most wonderful, shabby chic touch and it's reflected in the beauty of the place.
Spending time with my students, in this place, is such a blessing.
And, since it's halloween time, I have a shocking and sinister plan to wear black all weekend..*wink!* If you're joining us, bring your spookiest duds and we'll have some fun. I've got some treats to give away, as well. See you there!
