Tuesdays [From Oct 11, 2011 until Dec 13, 2011]
9:00am -> 12:00pm
Houna Holistic Center

Whether it’s a new hobby you’ve recently acquired, or a career path you want to take in jewelry making, this workshop might be just the thing for you.

Guests learn all the basics about jewelry making, designing by using special tools and the many techniques in jewelry making for beginners. At the end of each session they will have made jewelry to wear or take home. They will make basic earrings at the first session, more advanced and complicated earrings in the second, bracelets in the third session, necklaces in the fourth, and variations in the last four sessions, including wire wrapping, rings, accessories, sets and more. Guests will have a set of tools and few different boxes of beads, wires, bindings, cords, chains, and so on to use during the workshop and to keep afterwards.

Rana El Ibrik is a jewelry designer and the founder of Ranawiyet. She has made it so far with very little support , but a big dream and a bigger ambition. Besides running and managing her own business, she is now giving jewelry making workshops, achieving yet another dream of hers: teaching. She’s a big supporter of handcrafts and believes that there’s an artist inside each one of us. She had a hard time starting her career from scratch, and promised herself since to be the mediator she wished she had for those wanting to get in the field.

In a country where everything is fast, easy, and processed, very little effort is being put in developing and encouraging handcrafts and creativity. This is where this one of a kind workshop in this area fills a big gap and answers the demand of many enthusiastic, artistic and creative people who need a little bit of help and orientation.

In this workshop you don’t only sign up for 10 sessions of intense jewelry making, but also for 30 hours of inspiration, motivation and unlimited support.
