Challenge Details

DESCRIPTION:

Construct at least five textured, hollow beads that are the same shape and finish. The beads should be graduated in size and have been imprinted with a re-useable, self-made texture sheet/block/tile, etc. The texture may be one that has been repeated and scaled to match the size of each bead or a motif that flows from one bead to another. Fashion them into either a necklace or bracelet and complete the design with a metal clay clasp that relates to the details of the beads. Make sure all findings are closed securely. The accompanying information request form will ask for a photo of the texture sheets used.

EVALUATION CRITERIA:

• Best Practices
• Precision of sequencing
• Uniformity of beads
• Complementary clasp
• Finished jewelry design
