- Beginning Beadmaking Workshop

- Join us for an introductory workshop that can lead you down an exciting path of exploration. Learn the basics of glass bead making including how to turn on the torch, wind glass around a mandrel, apply dots, manipulate the shape of the bead, and get it off the mandrel after the bead has cooled. Most importantly, you will come away from this class with a clear understanding of the proper techniques and safety procedures to successfully make glass beads! We’ll also explore raked patterns, millefiori, and dichroic glass.
