Students will make several simplistic sets as well as one complex set involving chain orchandelier pieces.  Upon completion of this class the same technique can be used to wire wrap beads for necklace dangles.  

Great class to make those Holiday themed earrings

8-12 headpins,

1/2 foot wire,

2 pair earring findings,

2-4 inches of chain or chandelier pieces,

center drilled beads (holed run from top to bottom not across the top).

Technique tips:  The One-Loop-Rollover technique learned in the Intro to Beaded Jewelry is an "openable" connection.  Meaning the loop you make can be opened to connect to your chain or earring finding.  The Wire Wrap is a "closed" connection.  These are considered more of a professional technique as well as a more secure connection.
