My Project

Avenues of Art are endless. In the elementary school, sometimes it's hard to introduce the different avenues effectively. My goal for this project is to inspire creativity through jewelry making.

I would like to teach students how to use polymer clay to create custom jewelry and keychains.

We will use the polymer clay to add texture, clean cuts, and originality to all the pieces ordered. My hope is to open a store to raise money for the art program and put it all back into my amazing artists. My artists amaze me every day and I want to expose them to experiences they wouldn't normally get.
