Join Tributaries multidisciplinary artist, Tineke Van der Eecken, to create jewellery with your own found treasures.
Did you know you can use simple crochet techniques with copper to create your own bezel or bail without needing any metal findings?
During this workshop, you will learn these clever techniques and how to incorporate special objects into your wearable art.
Copper wire, crochet hooks, and glass beads will be provided, but you're encouraged to bring along your own special rock, shell, pearl, gemstone, or other object for your final piece.
Light refreshments will be provided.
