Kathleen Dustin Ethnic Beads in Polymer Clay
Friday April 30th & Saturday May 1st - 10:00am-4:00pm
Location: The Bead House Studio
Description: Its wonderful when large beads can be visually statement-making, but its not enjoyable when they are too heavy to wear comfortably. In this workshop, Kathleen will teach constructing and assembling large light-weight hollow beads in organic/geometric shapes, but will concentrate on making beads inspired by the world's ethnic jewelry. Students will make their own neckpiece of beads using some Kathleen's original faux techniques and quite a bit of carving, so if carving practice is what you want, then this is the workshop for you. Having taken the "Large Hollow Bead" workshop is advised, but not a requirement and emphasis will be placed on your own reinterpretation of classic ethnic designs.
