In this class you will be making a beautiful vintage inspired wrap bracelet with many different components. You will be starting with an etched piece of metal for your focal piece. There will be different stones to choose from which you will solder to the metal. You will be making the oval links out of copper metal and texturing them after they are soldered closed. Once all of these components are done, you will be attaching everything together with jump rings and a string of beaded pearls and a hook closure.
Materials Fee $35 cash paid at beginning of class includes:
Etched metal, copper tape, copper wire, vintage stone, pearls, headpins, jump rings, beading wire. (I will have a supply of metal shears, files, and crimp beads & caps for you to use)
