Circles in the Sand

One day class - All levels

Bead embroidery is the focus of this beautiful beach themed neckpiece. A metal shell is our focal that is enhanced with other beady embellishments.

New England is my favorite place in the world. This piece was inspired by my deep appreciation for the intoxicating view of the very venue we are all attending.

Kit price: $105

Art Deco Ada

Prerequisites - Peyote, Herringbone, basic bezeling

A gorgeous pendant consisting of several bezeled crystal elements and arches beaded with seed beads. Reminiscent of the Art Deco age with its arches and subtle colors, simple yet complex designs, this pendant will be a beautiful addition to your jewelry collection.

Petelin

One day class - Intermediate/Advanced

Techniques - Bead weaving, bead embroidery

This abstract pendant has inspiration from the world of birds. Petelin means "rooster" in the Slovenian language. Bright feathers, long tails, and sharp talons.

The original design was made in 2016, but those shapes are fun to do, so I decided to recreate them for the workshop. You will learn how to combine bezels for 27mm round stone and Rivoli.

Kits will be mandatory $100
