In Session 1, students will plan a design and theme from their assortment of beads and begin assembly.  Various beading, wire wrapping, and wire sculpting techniques are used.  Each design is as unique as your imagination, and this project is a great way to use spare or extra beads from previous projects.  Between sessions, students will have a two week “homework” time frame to continue sculpting the piece in their spare time at home.

In Session 2, students will learn how to finish the collage for a unique, hand crafted cuff.
