Join jewelry artist Teresa Carrao of Desert Designs by T for a cozy, creative evening in our Art After Hours series. In this hands‑on workshop, you’ll learn how to wire‑wrap a beautiful semi‑precious stone using premium, tarnish‑resistant antique copper wire — and you’ll leave with a finished necklace you made yourself.
Each participant gets to choose their own stone, then settle in with a glass of wine while Teresa guides you step‑by‑step through shaping, wrapping, and assembling your piece. She’ll bring everything needed: a huge bundle of pliers, cutters, lights, tools, and all materials, including square and half‑round antique copper wire and an 18” matching chain. Whether you’re brand new or already love making jewelry, this workshop is designed to be fun, welcoming, and fully achievable.
Come with friends, make it part of your Friday night out, or enjoy the whole evening here — it’s a wonderful way to unwind, learn something new, and create a unique necklace you’ll be proud to wear.
