Wire Weaving introduction Part 1 -09/12/24- 2:30pm - 5:00pm
Wire weaving part 1 workshop will cover how to weave 2 core wires together in three different ways.
In this 3-hour online workshop, you will learn how to use finer guages of wire alongside thicker gauges of wire to create decorative woven effects that not only look beautiful but also serve to help join wires together.
Gemma will guide you through the techniques, help you to overcome the pitfalls and leave you confident to weave and wrap and add wires together neatly and consistently.
Gemma will cover how to create:
Figure-of-eight weave earring or pendant frame
Double figure-of-eight leaf components
'Castle' or 'combination' weave pendant wrap.
