Cristie Prince showed us all how to
make wine stoppers and gave us sources for purchasing the necessary
hardware. (See the Links page)

Gerry White, owner of Beads by Design,
was trained as a metalsmith and taught us about silver wire, silver
clay, fine silver vs sterling, gold alloys, wire hardness, hardening wire, and more.
After the photo of Gerri there are some photos of pieces made from PMC
silver clay by Gerri and her daughter Stephanie White who is also a bead maker.

Lewanda Hardy showed us all how to
make rings from beads and wire and then we made them. The
first photo is of Lewanda diagramming the ring's construction. This
is followed by picture of the rings that we made.
