Wire Wrapping 101


Have you always been amazed by wire wrapped beads and cabochons? Are you looking to do more than just wrapped and simple loops? Then this class is for you!

Coming in August we will have a new teacher at BeadFX, Robert Burton! Robert, a wire sculptor, has a natural flare for creating beautiful pieces of wearable art. His 30 years of experience in the bending and shaping of metals has made the transition to wire sculpting a natural one.

Robert will be teaching a 9-hour wire wrapping course spread over three Fridays. In this course you will learn basic wire techniques, wire wrapping and wire sculpting. You will also discuss the properties of various types of wire and learn the appropriate wire for use with different projects. Time permitting, you will create a ring, two pendants, a bracelet and earrings.
