This is a delicate bracelet that flows like fabric around your wrist. It is a beautiful classic design, and it can be worn unadorned or embellished with a scattering of pearls, crystals, gemstones, metal beads or art glass drops.

We will discuss creative options for future projects that use this weave. Choose sterling silver or Jeweller's Bronze (a bronze that is close in colour to gold).

Class fee: $30.00 + HST. Payment due in advance.

Kit: The kit includes step-by-step illustrated instructions, silver or bronze jump rings in two sizes, two charms and a special toggle clasp (sterling or vermeil).

There are sufficient rings for a 9 inch bracelet, and all rings are saw-cut and polished.

Pliers designed for chainmail will be supplied for class use. Optional: eyeglasses or magnifiers, personal tools.

Kit Fee: $96 for the bracelet plus HST for Argentium Sterling

Kit Fee: $44 for the bracelet plus HST for Jeweller's Bronze

Bonus: A pattern for diamond shaped mesh earrings will be included.

Level: Beginner Plus

Prerequisite: Some previous chainmail experience

Marilyn Gardiner

 


Instructor: Marilyn has a passion for creating jewellery. This is her new lease on a life — she is a retired teacher and school-board computer consultant.

Three interwoven paths are developing in her life. The first is a love of pattern and design from different eras and cultures and its reflection in her bead work and designs. The second is her enjoyment of teaching adults, and the third is the satisfaction of developing beadwork kits with clear, step-by-step directions and diagrams that really work with learners. Many of her beading skills were self-taught using books, the internet, and trial and error but she enjoys seeking out and travelling to learn from experts such as Don Pierce, Virginia Blakelock & Carol Perrenoud (bead loom), William Hodge, Marla Gassner, & David Chatt (off-loom beading), Jennie Might (bead crochet), Bette Kelley (broadcollars), Rod Owen (Kumihimo), Jennifer Campbell & Sharilyn Miller (wirework), Jay Humphreys (PMC), Fred Zweig (silverwork), and Joni Kisro (chainmaille).

She teaches classes in Waterloo Region, Toronto, Texas and Arizona.
