Ramadan Nights Beading Classes: Vintage Au Provence Earrings July 20


As we reflect, connect and contemplate our blessings what better time to gather and learn in a relaxed and cozy surroundings this Ramadan.  So after Iftar, you can learn, make and create perhaps for you to adorn during the upcoming Eid Celebrations. 

Bead Embroidery simply put is quite addictive.  As you can see from my own work, it represents a lot of the creations that are in the LB o J'zazz archives and collections.  Taking a beautifully crafted cabochon or semi precious stone cab adhering it to a surface and creating layers of details and color shifts through bezeling with Circular Peyote creates a rich tapestry of painting like approach with beads on the foundation material that acts as the canvas. 
Taking the two main components and assembling the units into a symbiotic fusion will be a new approach.  The grand finale will be the fringing technique perfected, championed and mastered by our wonderful teacher Sherry Serafini that inspired me and  will take the project to yet another level.  There will be no less than four kits available to choose from.
