Do you have loose beads from treasured jewellery items rolling around in a box?
Have you ever wanted to re-create a sentimental piece and claim back a special item which holds cherished memories?
This could be the workshop for you.
This beaded jewellery workshop encourages participants to bring their broken beaded items along and learn the skills to create a final piece, either the same as before or a new re-imagined design.
Our workshop leader, Clair, provides all the necessary tools and materials to fix and re-build items along with a selection of beads and other components for participants to add into their items or create something completely new. Participants will not only leave with an item they can wear but with new skills to use in the future!
