Sample Class/Private Party Windchime/Suncatcher Class
Sample Class/Private Party Windchime/Suncatcher Class
Using driftwood 5-10 inches long, beads, shells, charms and other found objects we'll be creating a three strand windchime/suncatcher. I will supply you a plethora of bead choices with various sizes, shapes, colors and materials (wood, stone, shell, glass, etc). You will be able to choose your driftwood, cord color, beads, shells and charms. Pictures are examples to help you get ideas, current supply inventory varies.
Some materials may not be suitable for the outdoors but would be spectacular indoors as a suncatcher! Many of my beads have an iridescent coating on them so when the light hits them you'll have a prismatic effect in your home (both humans and pets like that;).
Skills needed: ability to use a tweezers, thread beads on and tie knots in skinny cord and think outside the box! I'll have sample windchimes and advice to help you design your piece.
If you have a special object that you would like to include in your windchime, you are welcome to bring it. It does need a hole in it in order to string through.
Note: driftwood and shells have been ethically collected from legally approved beaches.
This post is a sample class for hosts to view class options. If you are interested, please email me at sgray@junemoonjewelry.net to coordinate a date, time and location. After that is completed, I will post your class open for registration.
Class fee is $40 per person. Minimum of 6 participants are required for private parties paid one month in advance of class date. This class requires quite a lot of space, tables, and lighting. One whole table (or more if available) for beads and supplies. In addition, class participants need about a square yard each for designing and assembly.
