This adventure started with the task of picking out beads for our 3 sets of earrings. This sounds simple enough, but with 2 huge rooms full of beads, it was no easy feat! We were instructed to pick beads for a single drop, double drop and cascade earring.
When we finally made our choices, we headed upstairs to the classroom. The store provided the necessary tools and a cheat sheet. We started by learning how to make the basic loop with the wire. I say basic, but it was not a basic skill for all of us. This basic loop waste foundation of all 3 earrings that we made. Erem's loops started off a little wonky, but she made some beautiful earrings by the end.
Overall, we had a blast. I can say that 2 out of 4 of us will likely never make earrings again, but we sure had a blast trying something new.
