CRYSTAL PERSUASION CRYSTALS FOR EVERYDAY- LIFE AND CREATIVE CRYSTAL WIRE WRAPPING

Crystals have long been used to achieve physical, emotional, and spiritual balance. In the morning we’ll discuss the metaphysical properties and benefits of specific crystals and stones in daily life. You’ll learn the prop- erties of widely used crystals and stones, as well as how to select, use, and care for your crystals. In the afternoon we’ll get creative and you’ll make your own personalized wrapped crys- tal pendant! Participants will learn to wire- wrap a crystal and will be able to select meaningful adornments for their crystal. Materials provided include: a crystal, sterling silver wire, a selection of beads and chips, a silver-plated chain and written instructions. Each participant will be able to leave wearing their completed wrapped crystal. Participants may share the instructor’s tools or bring their own: flat-nose, chain-nose (without teeth), and round-nose pliers; flush- cut wire cutters; a pin vise; ultra-fine-point sharpie; and a foot-long ruler. Please bring eye magnification if needed. Materials Fee to complete one crystal: $30, payable to the in- structor. Extra materials will be available for purchase.
