Tomorrow night I am attending a jewelry making class where I will be learning to make the Leather Wrap Bracelets! I am VERY excited about it! These bracelets are very trendy and seen everywhere right now! I like that I will have the ability to customize the bracelet just by using diferent colors of leather and different types of beads. I think the length is also variable so that the bracelet can wrap once around the wrist or several times. I imagine the closure point can utilize different options as well. So many possibilities!
I am taking the class at my favorite bead store: Off the Beaded Path, which is in Forest City, NC. If you are close, you should definitely check it out! The owners Kelly and Sammy are super nice and very helpful! Kelly has answered numerous questions and helped me when I've hit a snag as I've been learning. Sammy is infinitely patient while I try to decide on exactly which and how many Swarovski crystals I have to have on each store visit! LOL!
Off the Beaded Path boasts a large variety of specialty beads, individual Swarovski crystals and findings. They also hold many wonderful, informative classes per month. You can view their current class schedule here:http://offthebeadedpathbeadstore.com/calendar.html . Personalized one-on-one training is also available.
So, wish me luck in my bracelet-making endeavors tomorrow night! Hopefully, I will have some pictures of my finished project to show you soon! If all goes well, I will have Leather Wrap Bracelets for sale at the Moonshiners Reunion Music Festival which I will be vending at September 30-October 1st, 2011. Details can be found at my website Event Schedule.
Take care and I will talk to you all again soon!
