Winter Class Crochet And Bead A Necklace

I have decided to offer the crochet and the beading as a mini session. I have had a few request and thought the winter would be a good time to meet and make necklaces. So my idea is Wed. evening of your choice 6:00-7:30. We will meet here in the kithen because the shop is just to cold and the heater cannot do its job with these temps. You will learn to crochet the chain and add the beads as you go along. You will make a crochet single strand choker necklace, add beads, and learn how to attach the closure. We will use cotton for our chain which is the beading 101 class. I also use wire which is great fun and changes up the look of the jewelry. That can be jewelry making 102! I will supply everything you need for the evening. You will also learn exactly the supplies needed to go home and start adding to your crochet beaded jewelry.

Below is a picture of some of my favorite items, some in wire and some in cotton. I use glass beads and natural rocks such as volcanic rock, quartz or maybe turquoise (which is my next project) Mix and match your beads to go elaborate or use all the same for simpler look. There are endless possibilities. Lighter colors with glass for the hot summer months, go darker with a heavier look for the winter. I know you would enjoy this. No crochet or knitting experience necessary.......

The cost of the class is 25.00 Wed. eve. 6:00-7:30
