Bronze Clay Jewelry Class scheduled:

The next class for learning how to work with the Bronzclay  is coming up on October 6th.  It will be again in the Off the Wall Gallery, upstairs mezzanine...this is also known as Mary Lynn's Yarn Garden, at 318 N. Main, Bloomington, IL.

You will learn jewelry design, using templates and texture plates for your design, how to work with the clay in rolling, applying texture, cutting design shapes, and sanding smooth and finishing.  This includes everything you need:  30 grams of Metal Adventures Bronzclay, use of my templates and my own textures (many are my original designs), tools to use, instructions, and the kiln firing process.  The firing will need to be done in my kilns at home, then I'll return the pieces to the gallery for you to pick up...unless you are from out of town, then I'll send them.  30 grams will get you as many as 8-10 pieces or as few as 3....depends on how large you like your jewelry!  All this will cost you $60, payable prior to class (clay needs to be ordered.).

The class will start at 1:30pm, lasts as long as needed to get all the pieces ready to be fired...usually 2-3 hours.  Due to limited space, 6 students is the limit we can handle.

If you have questions, email artjools@frontier.com, or Mary Lynn at the Yarn Garden stitchinggirl_2000@yahoo.com.
I would need you pay when you sign up, as mentioned above, as I need to order clay  and other supplies before the class.  Also, it would be great if you would register with Mary Lynn since she is there at the gallery/store and can keep it all organized.  It might get kinda crowded if I sign up 4 and she signs up 6!!

This is a fun class, and you'll be amazed at what you can get!  The bracelets above are simple to make, and can be a good project for you to make..............
