After several requests, local artist Robin Dudley-Howes is back with us teaching this Wire Shaping 101 workshop. Join us and let Robin teach you the basics of wire shaping, as you create at least three artistic, wire Bohemian Rings. With 12 years of experience, Robin will guide you from very basic work on to more complex wire shaping. While no experience is necessary, you'll want to bring better grade jewelry pliers; Robin suggests Lindstrom, Swanstrom, Bead Smith, Euro Tool, or similar brands.
