Classes in May


In this class, you will be shown how to wire wrap a gemstone, a glass fusion pendant, and a crystal point. You will also learn how to make a simple wrap around loop, which are both essential to making earrings bracelets, and necklaces.

You will be able to choose between a large variety of beads, gemstone pendants, glass fusion pendants, crystals, and Czech glass beads to make your designs! Marcelle will teach you the essential techniques you will need to bring your wire wrap designs to life!

All materials will be provided.
