A sweet, new beady class from Orna

September 28, 2011 by Denise Felton Leave a Comment

Orna Willis has just announced a new online course: Dolci. Students will create eight needlepoint beads–little sweets, as the course name suggests. Orna’s blog says,

What sets these beads apart from other jewelry components I have created in the past, is that they are true beads. They are rounded and double sided. They have a 3-dimensionality that has not been done until now.  In the Cyberclass, you will be working with the first 8 designs of a whole new line of  Dolci Bead designs from Adorn. You will learn all of the new techniques needed to create these tiny gems. And they really are tiny–the smallest is as small as a dime!

Get all the details and see more photos at the blog post.
