Wire Wrapping
Wire wrapping, one of the oldest techniques in making hand made
jewelry, is the art of wrapping and twisting wire around a cabochon,
faceted stone and/or other component without the use of soldering or heating the wire.
Beginning students learn to wrap a cabochon in the first lesson.
Alternative projects are available. Advanced students may work on
pendants, pins, rings or bracelets.
Participation fee: $10.00 plus the cost of the materials.
Supplies needed: A beginning student should bring a ruler, a pair of flush cutters, a cabochon, round-nose pliers and chain-nose pliers.
