Wire I - Sandra Bergquist This course will present basic information about wire wrapping through projects which allow the student to steadily build the skills required to accomplish increasingly complex designs. Initial projects will include earrings, pendants and rings. Depending on student interest, wire weaving and wire sculpture will be introduced. Students who have taken this course previously will be provided new projects commensurate with their experience, interest and ability. Although all required supplies and tools will be available for use during the class, students may bring their own tools and supplies. An OptiVISOR or magnifying clip-ons strongly recommended. Lab fee covers handouts and shaped brass, bronze and copper wire. Sterling silver or gold-filled wire and cabochons will be available for purchase from the instructor. Total class cost will depend on current market prices of the materials selected. If you have questions about the course, contact Sandra at slbergquist@cox.net. *Teens (ages 13-17) can be enrolled in the 6/13 class, unaccompanied by a parent or guardian, with the prior approval of the instructor.
