Students will learn off-loom bead weaving to create a lovely, modern neckpiece. Using a needle and special durable thread, participants will craft their own unique art piece. The finished jewelry reflects the look of elevated, designer jewelry, and each kit is distinct, offering a variety of bead combinations and design variations. Kits include everything needed to complete a finished necklace, including beads, clasp components, a needle, and specialized thread. This class is appropriate for both beginners and experienced beaders and offers a fun, productive, creative experience. In-class kit fees will range from $45-$75 depending on the beads chosen. Payment in class can be made using cash or Venmo.

Seats are limited and booked on a first-come, first-reserve basis.
