Transform Your Treasures
Upcycle your broken jewelry, beads, and components to create something fabulous and new. Why give up on old and/or broken jewelry when all it needs is a little imagination?

Do you have beaded necklaces, bracelets or earrings that you're unable to wear because they're in a plastic bag or the bottom of your jewelry box broken into a bazillion pieces? Have a bunch of jewelry laying around that you can't or won’t wear because it’s out of date? That “one bead” that you want to preserve on an otherwise expendable piece of jewelry? Holding on to one special earring hoping to find the other? Necklace too short or long? Bracelet too big or too small? This class is for you.
