Peas in a Pod–great gift idea
$68.00Date and Time: 09/20/2020 from -
Capacity: 6
Instructor: Zanetta Hoehle
Prerequisites: No experience necessary.
Use copper wire to learn to close two ends of a flat weave into a cylinder to form an open pod. Add crystals to the center of the pod, to finish one end with a loop and add an additional crystal, and to finish the other end with a bail so you can hang it from your favorite chain. This project lends itself to using birthstone colors and celebrating family.

Face coverings must be worn during class and participants will be spaced at least 6 feet from each other. Tools will not be shared and will be cleaned before and after use.
