About this Event

Welcome to our Jewelry Making Workshop Series at the City Market IRL X Water Tower Place. Join us every Thrusday until end of September for Night Market + Craft Workshop + Live music + Free parking!

The workshop begins with a brief history of gemstone beads and tips on how to identify natural beads and pearls.

Then the attendees will choose from Rose Quartz, Hematite, pink and white Freshwater Pearls and Aventurine gemstones to build their strand. We'll have a step-by-step instruction on selecting and preparing the beads and wire, stringing the necklace and securing the closure. I will have one-on-one time with everyone to answer any question and demonstrate in person.

Each attendee will go home with one finished gemstone / pearl necklace, note cards with their healing properties, and gift boxes.

  • All materials provided including Semi-precious gemstones beads, freshwater pearls, cords, extenders and clasps.
  • No previous experience needed.
  • You’re welcome to bring your own beads or charms to incorporate into the design.

We also offer Jewelry Repair / Alteration Service: chain soldering, ring sizing, clasp repairs, gemstone setting, repurpose of old gemstones or metals, and full custom redesigns of heirloom pieces.

See you there!
