About this Event
Beadwork 101: Make Your Own Croc Charm Beading Workshop
Thursday, July 9th 6-9PM
Come hang out for a cozy evening of beading, snacks, and community ✨
We’ll be creating beaded croc charms!
I’ll guide you through the process step by step, so no experience is needed. You’ll leave with a finished piece (handmade by you!) and all the skills to keep beading on your own. Whether you’re a first-time beader or looking to deepen your craft, this is a relaxed, supportive space to learn, create, and connect.
KN95+ masks are required. Folks are permitted to remove their masks for eating or drinking. If you’re feeling unwell, please stay home — we can discuss a ticket transfer.
🎟️ Tickets

Your ticket includes:

Sliding scale pricing helps keep beading accessible while still honouring the time, energy, and materials that go into each workshop. The true value of this experience is $65 + HST — please pay what feels appropriate for you 💖
