- Third, stay tuned, as we’ll be announcing within the next few days the remaining (awesome!) details included in the event as we open our workshop for REGISTRATION! (no worries, you’ll be the first to know when that happens!!).

A few more things about this workshop:
1. LEVEL (Expertise Required)
This workshop is designed for BEGINNER to INTERMEDIATE level polymer clay fans. So, even if you’ve NEVER worked with Polymer Clay before, this course will not only teach you the basics, but you will leave with more hands-on experience and knowledge than most other beginner courses out there.
NOTE: The workshop and techniques were specifically adjusted and designed to accommodate the limitations we have time-wise. The construction of the bead/shard was engineered so that it requires tools that are small and light, and to ensure that the completion can be accomplished within approximately 2-hours.
2. THE PROJECT:
We will make together one of these 3 WEST ELM INSPIRED PENDANTS.
The class will consist of 3 Parts:
- Part 1: Creating the bead “pattern” –> Demo followed by execution (with my help).
- Part 2: Adding the “back” of the bead –> Demo followed by execution (with my help).
- Part 3: Baking the bead (toaster oven), and finishing it.
3. MATERIALS & TOOLS:
Among many “other” amazing surprises and take-aways to be disclosed next week, these are some of the basic tools and materials that you will be provided to create your limited-edition jewelry pendant:
4. LIMITED SEATING:
Because we’re having to purchase your materials ahead of time, and because our space (even though BEAUTIFUL) is also limited, we have limited seating.
So make sure to stay tuned as we’ll be announcing the remaining details of the event as we open our workshop for registration!
