Last month I took Dawn-April Williams' beadwork class at the gallery,
and it was fabulous! First of all, I thought it was very reasonably
priced... $40 for the class and then an additional $25 for the materials
I used, and that included all of the beads I needed to make a necklace
and all of the tools I needed to make future jewelry for myself... and
that's just what I have been doing!
Since learning the "how-to" basics
of jewelry making, I have been able to repair most of the things in my
jewelry repair box, and reassemble other pieces to give them new lives! I
went to a bead shop and spent $25, and used the skills I learned in the
class to make a really nice necklace, a charm bracelet, and 4 pairs of
earrings. Now if I don't have the perfect pair of earrings to go with an
outfit, I can whip them up in about 15 minutes! This is a very
informative class, and is well-worth taking. She is teaching another one
this Saturday, July 9th and then again on Saturday, August 13th, from
11 until 3 pm. Call the gallery and sign up now! (360)629-4297 |
