Advanced Object Encased Pendants: Elaborate Bezels and Bails

June 24-26, 2025
by Lisa Klakulak

This is a small scale felt jewelry course focused on layering techniques to build next level

ornamental design inspired by metal jewelry mounting techniques of bezel and prong settings

and elaborate bails for hanging. Partial felt will be cut to shape a bezel, the reveal hole to see the

encased object adding versatility to the shape of the opening and the object’s color and pattern.

The bezel and it’s inner edge can be textured with free-motion stitching for a more textured and

detailed finish. For the second pendant, the template of the hollow form encasement will be

extended into a hollow tubular form for the hanging bail device. Partial felt will be embedded in

this layout to sculpt concave and convex curves using differential shrinkage and circumferential

fulling to create dimensional form.

Important: This course is for those who have taken Lisa’s Resist-based Pendants in person workshop and/or completed both of STRONGFELT’s Online & Onpoint! Courses.
