In this class Kim has requested I use Fusion Bead Release as this is the release she has the best success with in crafting birds. We will be using 3/32" mandrels. IF... you would like you may provide your own dipped mandrels with the release you prefer using. If you do bring your own mandrels please let me know so we can keep things separate. If you bring your own dipped mandrels and do not have success with them with these techniques, there will be studio dipped mandrels at your disposal. |
