Join DVBS member Linda Williams for part two of Botanical Jewelry - Painting your components! Linda will provide the botanical kit, you provide the creativity!
Provided: Botanical components, nail polish, remover, q-tips and cotton balls, paper plates and tape.
Participants are asked to bring: tweezers, tight fitting rubber gloves (optional) and jewelry plyers.
Not provided:
To finish the earring project you will need metal findings including, fishhook ear wires, 2- eye pins, 6- o-rings, e6000 glue and pliers.
During this program, due to the time needed for the nail polish to cure, you will be painting your components only. Linda will be discussing finishing techniques which can be done at home. If you would like to bring your components to the May meeting, Linda will have her nail polish stash available for touch-ups.
If you finish your earrings at home, make sure to bring them to the May meeting for Show & Tell!
About Linda
A member of the Community Garden Club of Hunterdon County for over 20 years, Linda has reached her goal of becoming a Master Flower Show Judge. One of Linda's bucket list items was to be a judge at the Botanical Arts division at the Philadelphia Flower Show, which is by invitation only.
The Botanical Arts division was created in 1993 after a group of members lobbied for its inclusion. The division was an immediate success, and its popularity led other flower shows to establish their own Botanical Arts competitions. The division showcases the creativity and skill of artists working with natural materials. An exciting experience to be checked off her list!
Linda's love for flowers and color is evident in her beadwork as well. She enjoys learning new techniques and will try anything once.
Join Linda for this exciting new program!
