Mind Lounge | Wire Sun Catchers

Learn how to use recycled copper wire and beads to create a beautiful Tree of Life. Rin will guide you through the copper recycling process and teach the basics of wire modelling, and then we will look to nature to inspire and help create our trees. They can be simple and tall, delicate and curved or filled with twists and turns.
