Fairy's Haven Necklace

Bridgette Antonelli, Instructor
Saturday, July 17, 2010 10:00a-3:00p
Class Fee: $65.00

Join new Resident Artist Bridgette Antonelli to create this wearable Fairy's Haven Necklace. This diminutive project includes many new techniques and unusual materials, for an afternoon of learning that is sure to please all students.

Inside a little jewelry gourd captured by gossamer linen netting, a tiny brass-winged frozen Charlotte (only 1 1/2" tall!) becomes the focal point of this edgy little mixed media collage, marrying the organic with the vintage look we all love. In this class Bridgette will teach the ancient art of knotless netting, rosary chain construction, basic cold connection techniques, and even metal stamping.

Your kit provided by the artist will include a miniature gourd, waxed linen thread, brass components, findings, crystals and more to complete the necklace as pictured. Bridgette will also bring a selection of the tiniest of Charlottes, so that you may choose your own. These will be available for $5.00 each. Students are encouraged to bring any special trinkets the might like to make their creation unique.

Supplies:

wire cutters tweezers E6000

any special beads or charms you might want to add
