Ultimate Wire Jewelry Tutorial Deal from Shaktipaj Designs



One of my favorite things to do with my blog is to promote jewelry artists that offer something more to the world of design and share their knowledge and creativity with others. Heading that list is Perri Jackson of Shaktipaj Designs, a name well known in wire circles. In addition to being an incredibly talented jewelry designer, Perri is one of those people with the rare gifts of eloquence and clarity. She uses her gifts to teach us how to create her amazing designs through a series of tutorials which help you master the techniques involved, so you can take those techniques and build on them to design your own beautiful jewelry.


On her web site, Perri is now offering, for a limited time, an incredible deal on the entire series of tutorials, that's 21 complete tutorials for only $35.00.

But wait, there's more! There's actually 30+ designs within those 21 tutorials. It's really an amazing deal that will keep you happily wrapping and coiling for many months to come.




Perri's tutorials are loaded with clear, crisp, close up pictures that guide you through every single step in the process of making some really complex designs. She believes ""The details are not the details. They make the design." Charles Eame, and Perri gives you all the details you need to complete her tutorials.



Perri has some interesting plans for the future. She's going to concentrate ononline class instruction, private work sessions and video classes – and ultimately – a BOOK!!


I wish her all the luck in the world. Knowing Perri though, she'll be a wonderful success at whatever she attempts.

Don't wait to order your tutorials. This is a limited time offer!
