About the course:

Discover the art of wire sculpture in this course designed for beginners. Focusing on small, hand crafted gifts, you'll learn essential techniques for bending, shaping, and assembling wire into beautiful forms. Each week explores a different type of gift, such as window hangings, Christmas tree decorations, earrings and pendants, allowing you to experiment with textures, mixed media, and creative embellishments.
