Tiles of Antoni Gaudi Cuff Wednesday
8:30am to 3:00pm
Tiles of Antoni Gaudi Cuff

One Day Class
Styled after the flowing and whimsical style of Antoni Gaudi's amazing architecture so famous in Barcelona Spain. These little beaded "tiles" are created by using a combination of Bead Embroidery, Right Angle Weave and Peyote Stitches to achieve a fantastically colorful cuff. Make your own cuff with popping bright colors or go for a more subtle color palette. Either way, you will love this beautiful, textural bracelet.

Skill Level: Intermediate to Advanced

Prerequisite: Uses Bead Embroidery, Right Angle Weave and Peyote Stitches


Mastering The Curl Thursday Morning
8:00am to 11:00am
Mastering the Curl

3 Hour Class
Mastering the Curl is Jeannette's signature class! This class has continued to be a favorite class among beaders since the mid 1980's because it is fun for people with all beading skill levels. This simple variation on the Peyote Stitch is easier than it looks, and a quick project. The Curl is such a wonderful pendant when it is finished. I love teaching this class and watching as the excitement builds as the class goes on and the curl begins to take shape. You can shop for the perfect blown glass or lampwork bead to nestle in the opening at the top once you are finished with your curl. Too fun!!!

The Third Eye Pendant

This lovely pendant has a compelling design that draws the eye to it's glass bead center. A circle of beadwork within a larger circle of beadwork encompasses a glass focal "eye" bead. The beadwork also appears to radiate outward from the focal bead adding movement and focus to the pendant. Embellish with Keshi Pearls and crystals, top with a triple bail and you have an elegant and interesting piece of wearable art jewelry.
