Students will make a necklace featuring a free form jasper pendent that has been dyed with a deep color that allows the brown and beige of jasper to come through the rich enhanced color of the dye. Students will work from a kit in their color preference and have additional bead choices available to make their necklace truly one of a kind. Students will learn about what cords and closures work well, and have a variety of complementary beads to work with in order to design a necklace that features their own personal style. No previous beading experience is required.

And, we could watch television if we had a project we were working on while we watched. Hence, all my life I have gotten into the habit of having a lap project---jewelry making, embroidery, sewing, or experimenting with a variety of artistic medium.Has
