Beginning Soldering: Bracelet
This class is our original basic soldering class with the same
funky bracelet design – we’ll create a base chain
of soldered rings then add a second layer of soldered rings to
make this complex-looking, complement-receiving bracelet. Whether
you’re totally new to soldering, or took a different beginning
soldering class and want more practice – you’ll love
the end result of this class!

More Fun With Wire: Fancy Bracelet Links
If you've taken almost any of Julie's classes you know how much
she loves wire - there's just SO much you can do with it. In this
class she teaches us some brand new techniques for creating bracelet
links, both with and without beads. You'll start with a brief
loop-and-wrap review and go from there, learning new ways to use
hooks, loops, and spirals. Bring your chasing hammer and block!

Bottle Cap Art: Doming and Riveting
Whether or not you've taken Julie's (It's) Riveting class, this
morning class is a great way to learn or practice your cold-connection
skills and learn about doming. We'll be creating a really fun
pendant by reusing bottle caps (start saving them!) - creating
a dome in the center of two caps, then riveting them together.
Both of these skills will allow you to create the advanced project
option offered in the afternoon class.

Metal Decorating and Sawing/Advanced Bottle Cap Art
There are two possible projects for this afternoon class - a three-layer
sandwiched pendant that will build on the skills learned in the
morning Bottle Cap Art class, and a moving two-layered window
pendant for anyone else interested in learning or practicing their
metal decorating/stamping skills and sawing. If you have been
nervous about using a jeweler's saw - don't be! There's plenty
of room for error and you'll be amazed at how quickly you improve!
Metal decorating? It's all about the hammers! Come see the samples;
you'll definitely want to make one of your own.
