CLASS DESCRIPTION

This is the workshop you need to learn how to rethread nannnas pearls you have at home. Are you struggling to get your knots even, tight and close to the bead? We can help you with any issues that you are having.

This technique is not just for pearls, you can use it on that special strand of gemstone beads that's you have sitting in your drawer that you were to afraid to use.

Beads and silk will be supplied for the workshop but feel free to bring any pearls or beads that you wish to discuss with you to class.

 In addition, you will be taught how to finish your jewellery pieces in a professional manner and to make use of a variety of materials and techniques.
