One of my very favorite stores in all of Austin has asked me to teach a couple of jewelry classes in April and I jumped at the chance! Craft-o-Rama is an adorable sewing lounge and craft store in South Austin that plays 80’s music all the time! I am teaching two different classes and registration has already started so if you are interested you might get a move on since there is only room for 8 people in each class. Not only will we be learning how to make jewelry we can also chat about running a small business, marketing, correct ways to open a jump ring and more – for 2 whole hours I am yours to quiz on all your hot burning questions. Email Hayley, call the store at 512-707-2405 or stop by (3100 S Congress Ave Austin, TX 78704) to sign up for the classes.
NEW! Charm Bracelet Class: Thurs. 4/24 6:30pm-8:30pm
Learn the fundamentals of jewelry making while whipping up your own one of a kind Revamped Vintage Charm Bracelet. This fun and informative 2 hour class will cover the basics of jewelry making like the difference between head and eye pins, wire wrapping, and how to open and close a jump ring. Class supplies include everything you need to make your charm bracelet! You will need flat and round nosed pliers as well as wire trimmers for this class. You will be able to buy a set from the instructor on day of class as well. Fee: $40 and includes materials.
NEW! Fabric Jewelry Class: Sat. 4/19 11am-1pm
And you thought fabric was just for sewing, oh no it is for jewelry making too. In this class we will talk about ways to use fabric in jewelry design. Each student will be able to make a ring, pony tail holder and two different bracelets! We will learn how to use a button covering kit, make a fabric quilting yo-yo and ribbon wrap a bangle bracelet. Not to mention lots of discussion throughout about incorporating in unusual elements like fabric into your jewelry design. Fee: $40 and includes materials

Oh how I would LOVE to attend this, too bad it's not in NY. :(
Maybe one day I will take the show on the road when my new book comes out and do some touring and teaching in other cities. I'll keep you posted if NY ever comes up.
Jennifer, I wish I was in Austin to take this class and especially to meet you! If you ever have a class in Los Angeles, I'm in!
Dang I need to take this class thing on the road apparently. Any other cities out there in need of some how to kitschy jewelry classes? Lemme know!
Me again! Definitely keep me posted and take this on the road!
Also I responded to your comment but I guess I can say it here too. Flickr Toys generates the images links for you (for the Faves) so all you have to do is cut & paste.
You are going to LOVE teaching and you will be awesome! Have fun!
Hey Nicole if I ever get out to Petaluma maybe I can teach something at Stitch Craft.
Thanks for the Flicr tip Marilyn. I have used the Fd's Flckr toys before and made a mosaic, but it didn't get give me the links.
I love these necklaces! I love all of the color + shape combos. I think the purple + orange is my fav. Super fun!
It looks like I won't make it to either one of those classes =(
I would say Houston, but we're close by that we can just drive up to Austin unlike the folks from above.
Hi Nice Blog .The internet retailers have grown quickly because they haven't been challenged, it's time for the independents to step up and create a much more competitive environment for internet retailers. The area most needing improvement is the sale of online diamonds and engagement rings in Jewelers Point
Hi Nice Blog .You should only proceed with a ad campaign if you are positive your site is the best it can be, otherwise you may just be pouring money away. There are thousands of companies on the internet who offer to provide you with ad campaigns, many of which never deliver, do not let any of these points put you off advertising in seo school.
