One of the most rewarding aspects of making your own jewelry is seeing the hand of the artist in your work. Learn techniques to take your handmade jewelry to a new level with nothing more than jewelry pliers and a humble spool of copper wire. In this workshop, learn how to make unique wireworked links and clasps and then how to chain them together into one seamless necklace.
