[back to quicklinks]
$ 75  

Copper wire is twined, twisted and balled in this fun filled workshop. We'll be working with several gauges of copper wire to form our delightful drops that become pendants and earring (with sterling silver ear wire). The wire that forms the base will be pre-balled for you and I will demonstrate how to ball the wire. This will free up play times and allow you create more. We'll twine, wrap and bend wire to fashion these whimsical beauties. I'll bring a variety of freshwater pearls for you to enhance and personalize your twined copper drops.Complete your necklace and earrings with the clasp and ear wires you create. 

The $10.00 kit fee payable to the instructor at the beginning of class covers the 16, 18 and 24 gauge copper wire, 24 gauge half hard sterling silver wire, 36” of satin cord and freshwater pearls.

If you have any questions you may contact me at: thphantom@aol.com.
