Metaphysical properties: 

Shayna- " I have always had a special connection with stones and metals and the natural energies that they provide. We interact energetically with everything we come in connect with through our rate of vibration. Crystals and stones have similar and compatible vibrations and energetic state to what humans have, therefore we can interact with each other on a metaphysical level. This gentle interaction is similar to how a friend can alter your mood or perception of a situation, so too can a crystal. They can help you with things you feel need some improvement, or enhance those unique qualities that make you special and get you feeling good about yourself. If there is ever a stone that really catches your eye and calls to you, there is a gift it wants to share with you that will benefit your health and/or emotional state and/or your connection to the Higher Power.

A little about the instructor:

Shayna Swiers is a local visual artist who has been honing her craft for over 10 years. She is the Sole proprietor of The Seventh Oak wire, she specializes in woven wire jewelry technques and metaphysical stone/ crystal meanings, healing and lore.

"Above all Shayna is very patient and kind, you can feel her loving spirit right from the moment you meet her. She is very skilled in her wire work and has a talent for teaching. She will walk you through every step of your project and will help as much as you request. For instance, I was a little weary of a couple spirials that had gone awry and Shayna fixed it for me with ease and reassuring words that I was indeed doing an enxcellent job and to never feel bad if something needed to be "Tweaked".The whole evening was very pleasant, drinking wine with a couple of my girl friends and our spouses, chatting about life and our experences while making something really cool and rewarding. I would Highly recommend these Wire and Wine classes to ANYONE and EVERYONE regardless of their skill set or arty background, Shayna made it so easy for us all to succeed."
