The purpose of this class is two-fold. You will learn as many brangle variations as we can fit into our day. I will also work with each of you to help define your jewelry style and how it can be expressed in your work. We will focus not only on brangle technique but design elements that can easily transfer to all jewelry you design. We will begin with a slide presentation that will present many ways for you to expand your design sensibility.

Each of you will receive a free copy of Connie’s Design CD.
