The $125.00 cost of the class covers all the materials and equipment you will be using. Websites and stores will be made available where you can purchase supplies.<br />This beginning class is setup so everything is provided and you can leave w/ a basic knowledge of safety and skills in making lampwork beads.<br />I believe that once a teacher, always a teacher....you will have my knowledge and skills to tap into whenever you need help or answers.<br /><br />Cirriculum<br />*Safety and setup<br />*Tools<br />*Basic Bead Shapes<br />*Decorating your beads<br />*Making and applying stringer and frit<br />*Finishing your beads (cleaning)<br /><br />I started stringing beads in 2001 and started flameworking in 2003.<br /><br />This class will be held at the Hot Shops Art Center at Crystal Forge Glassblowing Studio<br />13th and Nicholas<br />Omaha, NE <br />Email me at LoriBirdSK@aol.com if interested.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4120278127831806404-2264339775811213318?l=parrottflameworks.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Parrott Flameworkshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02207146637783844978noreply@blogger.com0
