Victorian Hairwork Workshop

Saturday, September 7th, 10 am – 12 noon 

Learn about the fascinating art of hair work and make your own “hairloom.” Use human hair, horsehair, or embroidery thread and a replica weaving table to create Victorian jewelry by hand. Kathy will teach you how to make a woven bracelet or necklace.
Participants should bring 200 strands of hair at least 12″ long for a bracelet or 24″ long for a necklace, or 1-2 skeins of embroidery thread.  Bring more thread for a multi-colored bracelet. We will have weaving tables available for each participant to use and available for purchase. $25 per person, advanced reservations requested, space is limited.
