Barbara DeYoung offers classes in jewelry design, seed bead weaving, and chain maille.
She attributes her skills in design and teaching to classes she attended at the famed
Pratt institute in Brooklyn, New York where her artist father taught. Her class instructions
are written with one overriding principal -- a student should be able to create the project
in class, but more importantly, he/she should also be able to re-create it at home, a week,
a month, or a year later. Barbara backs up this principal with free follow-up sessions.
