My family and I have begun a new hobby of jewelry making. It is quite fun and enjoyable. I particularly love wire bending. I have been collecting beads for years and making various pieces over the years. But things really took off when for my birthday some friends and I went to a wire jewelry class. Since then I have been buying beads and wire and making all kinds of creations. Most of them were for gifts over the holidays but here are some that we have kept.
The earrings that I made in the class we took at the Makery in State College, PA. This is were my new passion began. |
My husband has jumped on board too. Here is the necklace he made me for our anniversary. |
During one of my hang out times with my daughter recently she asked me to teach her how to make wire jewelry. This is the creation she made me for Christmas. |

This necklace came from a kit that my husband gave me one year as a gift. |
My daughter ambitiously made this while studying it on pintrest. She is so talented! |
