Overview: In this workshop, I will teach students how to make a bow pendant out of wire. At the end of the session, they will have a completed bow necklace to take home.

Project Details: We will shape bows using wire and pliers. Hammers will be used to add flat accents. Each student will get to make up to 4 different bows, and then attach their favorite one to a vintage-style antiqued brass chain for a total length of 20". Students can shorten the chain if they prefer a shorter necklace.
