Words from your instructor Erica Woolley:
“Wire wrapping isn’t just a technique for me; it’s a meditation and it’s a way of letting each stone’s story unfold naturally, enhancing its connection to the wearer. My approach is intuitive, guided by the unique vibrations and stories each stone tells. While I have my go-to favorites stones but I find that whichever stone I’m working with will reveal new insights and inspirations. Whether experimenting with new materials or incorporating other natural elements, the journey is a constant adventure. I look forward to every new project as an opportunity to learn, grow, and share the magic of these earthy treasures.”
