The most fun jewelry making class! Create original jewelry or a hanging ornament for your home or garden. You might assemble 5 pairs of earrings or start on a wire sculpture. Students are introduced to design elements, methods of capture and assemblage with wire, fiber, recycled and found materials ands well as basic jewelry finishing techniques. Feel free to bring your box of unused and random treasures. Leave with the skills to continue working independently. The nature of Funky Junque encourages total freedom and personal vision. Each class is inspired by our connections to the energies of the universe.
