In this session, our seasoned Artisan, Laurie Poirier, will be using a 20 gauge wire and an undrilled stone to create a pendant. If you do not have 20 gauge wire or stone, this technique can be adapted to use other types of wire and objects such as sea shells, sharks tooth, Sea Glass, and even Acorns!

Tools and material needed: 

Round nose pliers 

Cutter 

**Flat Nose pliers are good, but we can get alone without 

Wire 

Stone 

Guests have the option to follow along and create their own bracelets in real time as Laurie provides step by step instructions OR feel free to just watch and create later!
