Nested Bead Ring Class

Yesterday Kathy Smiley of Wolfe Den Beads taught a class on making wire wrapped rings.  These rings featured some of Kathy's lamp work glass beads. 

It was a full house!









All 6 ladies had a great time and were able to finish 2 rings in the 2 hour class!




Just to show off their wonderful creations... (minus one that was not quite finished yet)

Thank you Kathy for being a patient teacher and for sharing your talents with our customers!
