Much like the charmed soldered bracelet, this necklace will have a mix of soldered charms as well as some beads and pearls and chandelier crystals.
In this workshop you will learn the different techniques and tricks of soldering glass charms. First you will design your glass charms and then we will solder them all up. These different size glass charms will all be a part of the “charmed” necklace
