Frauke Gugat - Surfing the Waves

Surfing the Waves

Dive into movement and sparkle with this wave-inspired design!

While most of us may never ride the crest of a real wave, this beautiful necklace lets you capture that same exhilarating motion in beadwork form. Surfing the Waves is an elegant and dynamic design that flows with sparkling movement and dimension, evoking the shimmer and rhythm of the sea.

In this class, you’ll learn to create the necklace’s distinctive “wave” pattern using an unusual variation of the CRAW (Cubic Right-Angle Weave) technique. The clever structure gives the piece a gentle curve and fluidity that feels both modern and timeless. Whether you choose a cool ocean palette or your own creative colorway, the result is a sophisticated statement that moves with grace and sparkle.

Join us for a relaxed, creative session filled with beady discoveries and laughter as we “ride the waves” together—no surfboard required!
