FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My Beading Social is FREE, where you come to socially work on current projects with no teaching included. My classes & workshops vary in prices currently from $30-60 with 2 & 3 hour sessions. Most classes & workshops include the use of my tools & almost all of them include supplies. I also offer private group classes & workshops priced upon request & decision of said project.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Speaking with them to find out what their interests are in jewelry designing. Creating unique classes for each student. Teaching which tools and supplies to use for different levels of making jewelry. Focusing on techniques, then designing with the use of a color wheel and other useful tools. Once a student learns certain techniques usually within 1-3 classes they will be able to make jewelry on their own. I teach a broad variety of classes. Jewelry, scrapbooking, party favors, costume props, home decor and more.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
While working for a craft store from 2006-2008 & 2011-2016, my knowledge of products in the arts and craft field grew immediately. With becoming a certified jewelry instructor in 2011, I have striven to learn as much as I can with different techniques, supplies & tools. I'm always researching online, on product websites & on my own to improve my skills & jewelry knowledge. It's an ongoing learning achievement I am proud of.
