EL wire is simple in concept, but any who have tried know those little hairs are a huge pain. I’ll share some tips, tricks, and techniques to create the strong connections and wicked safe ends.
I’ve been playing with EL wire in costumes for 5 years and learned from the best. I have several pieces that have latest the entire time.
Costs:
If you need some EL Wire, we’ll have some $20 kits on hand for the class.
