Main Line Bead Society is excited to announce the first of our Saturday classes, to be held on April 6, 2019. In this workshop, we will be making a beautiful and elegant herringbone necklace and earrings with Elizabeth Karasek (Live to Dream).  Students will learn how to wire wrap semi-precious beads while mastering the fundamentals of wire wrapping jewelry. This herringbone pattern is arranged so that it is symmetrical yet opposite to the eye, representing the bone structure of a fish.  




The workshop fee is $75 for members (including kit), $85 for non-members.  The price includes the kit, which will include copper wire, ear wires, chain, toggle, and choice of beaded stones.  Sterling silver wire will be provided, as requested, for an extra fee. Additional kits will be for sale. Elizabeth will also bring some of her beautiful crafted jewelry for sale, so bring some extra cash!

Students should bring the following:

  • Round nose pliers
  • Flat nose pliers
  • Chain nose pliers
  • Flush cutters
  • Ruler (mm)
  • Sharpie (black)

Extra tools will be available to borrow.

The class is limited to 15 students, so sign up soon! You need to login to Wild Apricot to register and prepay for the class. The class is open to all members and will be open to non-members starting March 12. We hope to see you there!
