SUMMARY:Double Diamondback Bracelet $40
DESCRIPTION:This is a previously published pattern by Alice Coelho. I’ve seen many circular peyote bracelets here and there and wanted to make one when I stumbled upon her pattern. Individual peyote components are stitched together to create a stunning pattern. You can use whatever type clasp you want and I chose buttons because they’re my favorite for cuff-type bracelets. \n\n\n\nYou must be comfortable with peyote in order to take this class. While it’s not hard\, an understanding of peyote is invaluable in this instance. You will not have time to complete this project in class. \n\n\n\nKit Fee: The kit for the class will be added to your ticket on the day of class. \n\n\n\nNote: All materials and tools for classes must be purchased at Beadoholique Bead Shop.

SUMMARY:Tubular Bead Crochet $40
DESCRIPTION:Join me for this beginner class in tubular bead crochet. This is really so much fun once you learn how to do it! As with any stitch\, you have to “see” and understand what you’re doing in order to be successful. So true with this one. But\, not to worry! You’ll know how to do it before class ends! \n\n\n\nFor those of you who have taken this class\, and others I have taught\, why not try this one again and using a smaller seed bead\, and optionally\, adding drops or other beads to add texture! You would then have a “baby” bangle to wear with your other ones! Let your imagination run wild! \n\n\n\nKit Fee: The kit for the class will be added to your ticket on the day of class. \n\n\n\nNote: All materials and tools for classes must be purchased at Beadoholique Bead Shop.

SUMMARY:Colored Pencil on Copper Earrings $100
DESCRIPTION:Copper lends itself to taking color in several ways; in this class learn to apply colored pencil to it. Metalsmithing skills needed to work the copper are annealing\, using a mill to thin and/or create texture\, sawing\, filing\, scribing and soldering silver to copper. Additional skills include using a flex shaft for drilling and balling\, flattening\, and riveting wire. Colored pencil drawings with large shapes and solid colors are recommended because detail is difficult to achieve except in line work. Colors can be separated by color lines\, or blended together. The simpler the better\, and the metal can be flat or textured\, with options added like more rivets or beads. As always\, think out of the box! You can always get back in.. \n\n\n\nKit Fee: The kit for the class will be added to your ticket on the day of class. \n\n\n\nNote: All materials and tools for classes must be purchased at Beadoholique Bead Shop.
