  Julie Haymaker $140    

This workshop is filled.
Student Level:
All
Type of Workshop: Process and Project
Prerequisite: None

 

Come join me in taking Shrink Plastic to a new level! We will dome it, bend it, ruffle it and drill it and turn it into a bead. Adding smaller glass beads and findings to our plastic bead will result in a finished piece that resembles a bell flower.

We will create 10 - 12 shrink plastic bell flowers that we’ll wire wrap onto a strong brass bracelet chain. Between the bell flowers we’ll create and intersperse smaller beaded dangles, wire wrapped charms and then finish by adding metal garden theme charms onto the chain resulting in a chunky fantasy garden bracelet that’s unbelievably lightweight!

Design will be stressed in this workshop - using color, size, pattern and texture in a pleasing way.  If you have never wire wrapped before, you will learn to do so in this class.

Kits for the student will include  the following:
Chain 
Head pins 
Jump rings 
Shrink plastic
Beads
Findings 
Charms 
Plus the use of Instructor's tools:
3 heat guns
Doming  block

Each person will have their own set of pliers to use but if you prefer to use your own or don't want to share, please bring them
Heat gun if you prefer not to share
Scissor if you prefer not to share
