Discover the art of bead embroidery in this beginner-friendly workshop! Students will learn the foundational techniques of bead embroidery while creating a beautiful pair of handmade earrings. You'll learn how to stitch beads onto a backing, finish the edges with a clean beaded border, and assemble your earrings into a wearable piece of art.

Students must have basic hand-sewing skills, including knowing how to thread a needle and sew simple stitches. Because seed beads are very small, please bring reading glasses if you need assistance with close-up work. An earring kit is required for this class and must be purchased separately. No previous bead embroidery experience is necessary.
