European (Pearl) Knotting Class

Traditional European (or Pearl) knotting is an elegant way to make jewelry. It not only protects pearls and other stones, the silk knotting provides a beautiful draping effect when wearing your piece.

It his class, we’ll use any combination of faceted Swarovski® crystals, bold colored or traditional white pearls and silk to create a bracelet. We’ll also share other examples of knotted pieces to provide inspiration on future projects.

Leather Weaved Wrap Bracelet Class

Learn to create this amazing bracelet worn by many celebrities and seen in InStyle, Lucky, Cosmo, Self and Marie Claire.

In this class, you will learn how to interweave beads, pearls, semi-precious stones or rhinestone chain onto leather to make this popular-style bracelet your own. You chose the lengths and the stones, and we’ll show you the technique. This bracelet can be wrapped or stacked –it’s your choice. The use of tools during class is included in the class fee and the materials of your choice are additional. 10% off all supplies the day of the class.

This technique is easy to learn and appropriate for all levels of experience. There is some detail work so please bring glasses, if needed.

Note: You can expect to complete one wrap during class. We will demonstrate the finishing technique and provide detailed instructions so that you can complete the bracelet at home, should you wish to lavish your wrist with multiple wraps. At the end of class, you are also welcome to work at our community table until the store closes.

We have lots of great restaurants and coffee shops nearby–come on by and make a day out of it!
