Class Info
Winter Workshops
Hello Everyone,
I am offering some classes for the winter session. If you are new to jewelery making, now (before Christmas) is a great time to get started. I would suggest a beginners earring workshop, to get used to working with tools and wire, then progress to the wire workshop (advanced) and wire pendant.
I am busy, busy getting the store ready for the holidays, with lots of new stock showing up, who knows, I might even be organized before the season hits.
I have been hosting the odd birthday party for kids, by request. They have been such fun that I will do more private parties. Call to arrange your private party on Sundays 1:00-3:00 pm.
Please go over the class list and if something interests you please CALL the store 250 352 3100 to sign up, as I am not always able to check email.
If you would like to be taken off my email list please send me an email with your name attached. If you think someone you know would like classes sent to them too, send them to my website to sign up for emails:
