My Project

Students need a creative outlet to help with learning. I want to start a Jewelry-making after-school club with students in my school to provide a new and different creative outlet.

My goal with this project is to introduce students to a new creative outlet with jewelry making.

I want to teach them the different types of jewelry making from friendship bracelets, earrings, and necklaces, and eventually more in-depth projects like wire wrapping. The items in my projects would provide the tools needed to add the wires to make the earrings and the variety of beads needed to make earrings, bracelets, and neckalces. The charms would be used in every type of project making every piece personal and unique to each student. Jewelry making can not only help with creativity but also provide stress relief after a crazy day at school.

The students at my school are unique in their backgrounds and desires, and many diverse students have already expressed interest in participating.
