Welcome to the Twisted Wire Studio!
2 new classes will be ready in 2012
See a sneak peek here now at the Frame Pendants!
I am Char Jorgensen, American Master Level Wirewrapper, and I will escort you through the wonderful windings of wire work! I have been teaching for over 11 years at my home, Nationally in Philadelphia and Sante Fe, Cascadia Community College and other venues so anyone can learn how easy it is to take something ordinary and turn it into spectacular jewelry. All of my classes are beginner level classes and students are encouraged to bring their own stones to wrap in class.
In each class you will learn my foolproof - low math method of estimating how much wire you need for each project, regardless of the size or shape of your stone!
PLUS:
-Learn the tips and tricks of working with wire and do it mark free.
-Learn how to choose tools that are not expensive and have them work just like the expensive ones.
-Learn the difference between dead soft, half hard and hard wire.
-Learn when to use square, half round and round wire and which temper to use where.
-Find out which gauges work best for which type of jewelry.
-Learn how to fix mistakes so no one will know!
-Learn the fast way to texture wire for a more custom look.
-Learn how to take your wire wrapping workshop traveling with you in a small space.
-Learn exactly how much wire you need for any shape or size of stone.
Complete instructions and helpful photos will guide you along.
