B E A D M A K I N G - W O R K S H O P S About Kristina's Workshops: Kristina truly loves sharing her knowledge with others. Her 20+ years of making glass beads and teaching beadmaking enable her to challenge and inform beadmakers at any level. Kristina concentrates on each student's individual needs in order to help them move forward in their own beadmaking. Looking for another workshop or another date? Kristina also teaches private classes in her studio throughout the year. Individual instruction is a great way to improve quickly and efficiently or work on specific beadmaking goals. Kristina's studio can accommodate up to 3 students at one time. Please contact her for more information and pricing.

Workshop France May 22 - 23 2013 Precision At The Torch Kristina, known in the bead world as the "Dot Queen", will go into great detail about how she achieves her recognizable precision. Whether you like to make dots, flowers, or abstract, organic designs on your beads, there is always an element of precision that exists. Hand-Eye control is essential at the torch. In this class students will work on specific techniques and "tasks" in beadmaking--dots, manipulating stringers, clear casing, working large beads, and various surface decorations. The goal of the class is to have each student develop better hand-eye control, spacing, and overall flame control when applying decoration to beads. By gaining precision, students can transform their own beads to the next level. This workshop is designed for the experienced bead maker.
