Description of the Course:
The Bangle with a Glass Cabochon course is a live, interactive, online workshop.
It's an intermediate to advance course, given in very small and detailed steps. The steps are made simple for everyone to follow and complete the project successfully. You have the option to create your own bangle exploring your own inspiration, however you should follow and apply the techniques provided.
I will teach the course via Zoom. The presentations will be pre-recorded in order to avoid any unpleasant surprises from using the technology live. The course will be presented in small 'digestible' steps and I will be there for you, to support and help you while you're working, also to answer to all of your questions.
The participants can work on their own pace during the session. Also, they will have access to the presented part of the workshop within 24 hours in order to catch up.

-- How to calculate the correct size for the bangle
-- How to create tubes with ArtClay silver 999
-- How to fire them and safely bend them to form the bangle
-- How to attach decorative endings to the tubes
-- How to make a clasp
-- How to turn a glass cabochon into a beautiful bead for the bangle
-- How to add a stone over the stone (glass cabochon)
-- How to fire the glass cabochon safely without any surprises
