Matchsticks 2: Bezel Basket (Intermediate Workshop)
6-Hour Workshop
$45 materials fee
Prerequisite: Any Fusing Workshop. Matchsticks #1 is useful but not manditory.
Students who already know how to fuse will enjoy expanding on the application of their skills. In this workshop we will combine fusing, the basic matchstick concept and wire weaving to assemble a bezel basket. This setting is perfect for capturing traditional and irregularily shaped stones materials. Students should bring their favorite collection of stones, gemstones, beach glass or coins. Any shape works! Don't forget your untinted safety glasses. All other materials, handouts and use of tools are included in the fee paid to the instructor.
