About
Discover the magic of playing with metal clay while creating many stunning pendants and charms during our first two days together. During our remaining three sessions, you'll explore three wonderful techniques: bead weaving, kumihimo braiding, and loom beading. These skills will help you create a variety of bracelets, ropes, necklaces, and other wondrous things on which your metal clay pieces can be displayed. Come and join this magical time and make a few of your favorite things!
