Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this jewelry design class:

Hoop-a-Palooza! Design and Craft Custom Beaded Hoop Pendants, Earrings, and Accessories (Introduction to Jewelry Making)

Design and make your own custom beaded jewelry and accessories!

In this workshop, you'll create three gorgeous, on-trend hoop accessories - pendants, earrings, or whatever, featuring itty-bitty loops or big rockin' hoops!

We'll provide all the tools and supplies needed to create your pieces, including gobs of beads to choose from. We'll teach you how to use jewelry tools to create the "frame" for your piece with pliable craft wire, in your choice of wire tone (silver, gold, bronze, and more!). We'll provide a beautiful selection of 4mm faceted Czech Glass beads in on-trend colorways to adorn your piece.


This particular method of “cold connection” beading is a perfect introduction to jewelry making as it requires no heat (no soldering, no electricity, etc). It’s a wonderful craft to get hooked on as it can be done right at home. And with the skills you learn in this workshop, you'll be able to create all sorts of unique, personalized accessories with very little cost and effort.

    Megan Isaacs is a brilliant and patient teacher. She clearly explains each objective, demonstrates how it's done then personally guides you through each step. She always makes sure that the students are hands on with all tools and materials. She deals with any student error patiently and professionally. The result? A perfect sterling silver ring that my wife shows off to everyone. Nobody believes that I did it all on my own- but I did with Megan's expert guidance.

    This was a great intro to jewelry. The class made band rings, with the option to add a hammered texture. The teacher Megan was incredibly helpful and warm. I would recommend this class to anyone who is new to jewelry making!! THANKS MEGAN!!

  • Hoop-a-Palooza! Design and Craft Custom Beaded Hoop

    Reviewed by Lyndsey M. on 8/18/2016
    This class was everything I had hoped for. Megan was a great instructor, and was really attentive to the goals of each student. She helped us figure out what we could accomplish in three hours, and gave us resources to realize our "stretch goals" in the future if they weren't within the scope of the class. The small class size was a huge benefit, so we had time to make a second ring or embellish our first. Even though the end products were relatively simple, I feel like I'd be confident using the tools in the future and building on what I learned in this class.

  • Hoop-a-Palooza! Design and Craft Custom Beaded Hoop

    Anonymous review on 4/27/2016
    The instructor was not ready at all. Her demo was ok, but when in help, she ended up just doing it for me. All in all, the experience was good, but because of her lack of being prepared, I feel like we spend most of the class time waiting around. This may have also been due to the fact that there was only one torch, and one hammering station (the tool that shapes the ring in a perfect circle and makes the desired size). Wanted to learn more or have a better use of the class time for what I paid for.

Question from Carrie R.
How difficult is it to drive to and park at this location, coming from eastern Long Island's south shore?
Answer from Jenn C. CourseHorse StaffCourseHorse Staff
Hi Carrie! The school suggests that students use traffic navigation maps to get to their Gowanus, Brooklyn location thru the quickest possible route, but as for parking, it´s an industrial neighborhood and there is usually parking after 6pm and on weekends.

Right off the Gowanus/Brooklyn Battery Tunnel and plenty of street parking. Have fun!

Hi Yenny, the class has only 1 session which will run on a Monday. If you locate the date selection a little bit down the page you should see a line that says "This course consists of multiple sessions, view schedule for sessions." - drop that down and it will show you all of the dates, times, and number of session/s.
