About the Artist: Liz Wagner
Liz Wagner finds joy in guiding crafters of all ages through the creative process. As a mother of five and kindergarten educator, she delights in the innate and uninhibited creative spirit that young makers bring to the workshop table.
“One of the first crafts I ever explored as a preteen was jewelry making. Walking into a beading store felt like discovering a treasure trove. The beads and findings shone, filled my eyes, and called out to me with inspiration. Applying those beautiful tools and materials to make custom accessories gave me a sense of accomplishment and individuality.”
Liz lives in sunny San Diego with her family of 7. She is crazy about her four chickens, gardening, and making something from nothing.
