Class Details

  • We run specialised classes for school aged children and teens during the school holidays. Children get to learn the foundational skills of how to design and thread their own necklaces, bracelets, suncatchers, etc, and we also teach special items like beaded animals, safety pin angel decorations, and more! Our staff help out with the tricky finishing off at the end. Bookings are essential.

  • Our teens classes build on the foundational skills we teach in our kids classes. They allow teens to develop their jewellery making skills by learning how to clasp their own jewellery, create earrings, braid macrame, tie knots, and more. These classes are suitable for teens aged 12+, or at our discretion if your child has experience in beading. Bookings are essential.

  • Our adults classes teach a broad range of skills, including but not limited to, designing, threading, measuring, clasping, looping earrings, knotting necklaces, tying elastic, and more! These skills can be applied when making many different things, and we can run private group sessions as well. Bookings are essential.

  • We can run specialised private sessions for groups of four or more people. Please send us an email to arrange this! More information is also available on our private functions page.
