with Bridget Benton: Igniting Your Creative Spark

Spiral Notebook Necklace

Make a lovely custom spiral notebook pendant - fill with your favorite images or words . . . I’ll bring the handouts and teach you the techniques – you bring your own creative ideas! Makes a great gift . . .

This class is scheduled to be taught at Dava Bead and Trade in Portland Oregon in April.  Scroll down for more information.

This class is also currently scheduled at Art Unraveled in Phoenix Arizona in August of 2010. Visit the Art Unraveled site for more information. 

Or, you can visit my Etsy store and pick up a kit - with instructions for those who've never taken the class, and without instructions for those who just want the pre-drilled convenience of a kit!  So why take the class if you can just buy a kit? Ah . . . because in the class you learn multiple techniques for adorning the plain acrylic covers, as well as access to all the materials to do so!  And nope, that's not in the kit!  The kit just covers the basics.

In one quick and easy class, you’ll learn to make a tiny spiral notebook with sturdy acrylic covers.   Fill the interior with blank pages, favorite images, tiny text, or decorative papers, and hang it from a simple chain or cord.  You’ll end up with a lovely, wearable, and yes, even useable, 1.25” x 1.25” spiral notebook necklace.  Very beginner friendly.    You can make a tiny storybook, love letter, travel journal, memory book . . . yes, even holiday ornaments!  I’ll bring the handouts and teach you the techniques – you bring your own creative ideas!

All materials will be provided, though if you have your own hand or electric drill with a 1/16” (or smaller) drill bit, feel free to bring it along!  You may also want to bring tiny images or favorite decorative papers for the inside, or a special stamp to decorate the outside.  Makes a great gift, and is very beginner friendly.
