Materials & Tools - Earring 101 class
The materials fee covers:
sterling silver (s.s.) sheet
s.s. round wire
s.s. earwires
various beads
additional tools & supplies will be provided for USE during the class
We also recommend that you bring the following items:
hair accessory (pony tail holder, hat or bandana, etc.)
sketch book & pencil
Because we pride ourselves in your safety and want to make sure we have a fun time without accidents, there are a few safety tips we would like to pass on to make sure you are prepared. You may want to consider bringing an apron made of cotton to protect yourself or your clothing. Because long hair and loose jewelry items can get caught in some machinery, you should bring a pony tail holder or hat to pull back your hair at certain times. Loose jewelry (chain bracelets & long necklaces) as well as loose ties on shirts and scarves can get caught in machinery. If you wear them, you should remove them during class. Eyewear will also be provided.
What creative ladies I had the pleasure of teaching in my Earring 101 class held in the loft space at Arts at Canal Place. It was a little comfy with all those fabulous women bumping into one another as we worked together so they could create some wonderful earrings! There was some talent in the class and it was a very eventful two days. We had a nice group of locals, but even some traveling as far away as northeastern Pennsylvania! They also stayed and toured the local area eatting some of our finest on the downtown mall area.
