About The Nootka Sea Glass Jewellery Making Group Workshop:

Spend two and a half hours learning the art of working with sea glass for jewellery making & create TWO unique pendants from sea glass to take home with you. You will be allowed to use upto 10 pieces of drilled seaglass and as many supporting glass or gemstone beads as you wish in both your designs.
Full instruction from A - Z will be given to help you magically transform your design from paper into two stunning and unique pendants you'll be proud to wear. See the amazing workshop feedback here
