This class is specifically designed for the new wire-wrapping student, but it’s also a great refresher class. We will have lots of fun learning the basics of wire work, then building on this foundation while creating beautiful wire jewelry. You will learn about tool selection, purchasing cabs and wire, and the wire choice for specific projects, as well as how to manipulate wire into shapes that enhance your creations. Class Projects include earrings, bracelets, pendants, and rings. I have prepared Project Kits and offer a selection of metal, crystal, and gemstone beads to further enhance your jewelry items. I have a complete tool kit for class use. Everything will be ready for you in class to learn a new skill and create your wearable artwork. An Optivisor or similar magnifier is a MUST for this class. Bring an adventurous spirit and your imagination. Class Fee includes your workbook, two mini kits, practice wire, etc. Project costs may vary depending on the current precious metal market and the number of projects you are able to complete.

BIO:
JUDI WILD - Wire I
Judi, always the consummate crafter and eager to learn new skills, started wire wrapping in 2007. She has attended William Holland twice or more each year to further refine her wire wrapping techniques. Judi has trained with some of the best wire artists at William Holland, and has also studied Chain Maille & Silver. Since 2008, Judi has taught at local bead stores, bead shows, and all-day retreats, as well as providing numerous programs for her local bead society. She is the co-founder and past president of the Greater Birmingham Bead Society and a member of both the Huntsville and the Alabama Gem & Mineral clubs. Judi also teaches Polymer Clay I and II. While looking for an alternative activity to wire wrapping and weaving, she absolutely fell in love with the versatility of Polymer Clay. She is a member of the International Polymer Clay Association and has organized a PC Group in her hometown to learn and share more about this colorful medium. Judi and her husband, John, a William Holland Cabochon instructor, live in Boaz, AL with a rescue Yorkie who travels well and has both of them wrapped around her little paw.
