More Classes up This Week

Robert Burton is our instructor of the week. He has been teaching at Beadfx for about a year now and going strong. 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.

He has taught private lessons in the art of wire sculpture to custom jewellery makers.

Robert's work has been featured in the Port Hope Evening Guide and has been available through boutiques in the area.

Robert's classes are really popular and fill quickly, he teaches one day three hour classes as well three week classes in wire working.

Coming up on Saturday July 25th Robert has two classes. Wire Wrapped Beaded Bracelet and Earrings from 10-1pm



And Simple Wire Wrapping Techniques 2-5pm
