Classes FAQ

What does class include:

​

Class includes all tools and materials needed to make the project unless otherwise stated. Some classes require the student to bring a gemstone.  Gemstones will be available for purchase in the classroom. Students are recommended to wear any type of apron to keep their clothing clean as some of the process' can be messy. Please bring magnification if needed as you are looking at small things and gemstones :) I am unsure of the lighting in this classroom. Last year my classroom was quite dark, so if you have a task lamp I recommend bringing it.
