Exploring Bead Weaving Workshops


During the summer months I conduct workshops
in off-loom bead weaving.  The workshops are held
at my gallery/studio location in Muskoka.  Please see my gallery page for driving directions.

Workshops can be booked for small groups from 4 - 8 people.

Beading Supplies will be available for sale any time during our business hours.

Half Day Workshops (3 hours)  $45

Full Day Workshops (5 hours + 1 hr lunch break)  $75


Description: 
Off loom bead weaving has a glossary of stitches, much like knitting.  Each stitch has a different weave which gives a different look.  Combining different stitches with different beads can results in an endless variety of style.   In this series of workshops I introduce and teach the principal stitches used by artists working in this technique of beading.  I will focus on one stitch in each workshop and offer some choices of different projects that can be made with that stitch.  These workshops will run for a whole day, from 10am to 4pm with a 1 hour lunch break.  Please bring your lunch.

Cancellations:    In the event of a cancellation a $15/person cancellation fee will be charged to your credit card.  No-shows will be charged the full amount of the workshop.
