Description

Jessica Garcia is a local chainmail artist who has offered to teach an introductory course on making chainmail to the community.

The class will teach how to create Queen's Mail using "iridescent gunmetal" and silver rings, and will include a clasp.

Examples of Queen's Mail:

The cost of the class is $10 for materials, though you will need two flat nosed pliers for tools. You can pick these up at Jo-Anns for about $10 each, or Omegix can pick them up for you before the class and you can reimburse him day-of.

• Harbor Freight has them for about $3-4 if you're interested in saving some money. http://www.harborfreight.com/hand-tools/pliers.html
