INSTRUCTOR PROFILE introducing Shannon Hardin "Simple Jewelry Techniques for Creating Wearable Works of Art"
I have been a creative person my whole life. I took every art class that was offered in high school but never even thought about making jewelry. My house is a testament to my creativity. I know that I drive my family crazy with all the bright colors and art collections all through the house.
While looking for work in 2005, I realized that I needed to do something creative to occupy my time after days of sending out resumes and scheduling interviews. I had a friend show me how to do basic wire work and the rest is, as they say, history!
Finding the hobby to fill my time has taken on a new meaning. I have
fallen in love with the whole process of jewelry making from start to
finish. Viewing the colors and handling the materials feeds my creative
passion. Designing a piece of jewelry, no matter how simple or
complicated, is a huge joy. I get excited just thinking about going to a
bead shop or bead show.
I use primarily glass beads, fresh water pearls, silver, silver-plate
and copper. My one-of-a-kind bracelets, necklaces and earrings are as
much fun to make as they are to wear. I enjoy teaching others how to
make jewelry and continue to learn new techniques through my exploration
of books, magazines and online tutorials.
(Shannon has been offering jewelry workshops through Clay Space for the past 3 years.)
