About the instructor:
Erin Page is a nurse and passionate jewelry artisan who embarked on her creative journey with the opening of her Etsy store Whimsical Wares Co in 2019. When the pandemic hit, looking for ways to destress, she found that wire-wrapped jewelry was a fun and unique way to both create art and unwind. In 2021, she moved to Maine and fell in love with the state. Beaches, mountains and forests sparked passion for capturing Maine’s beauty in her jewelry. Loving the stress relief she found in wire wrapping, she now brings this craft to her community with her classes. While not teaching or working as a nurse, Erin’s work can be found at occasional craft fairs as well as on her Etsy store and Website.
