Join Rene Connolly of Touch of Whimsy for an intentional, hands-on beaded necklace class where you’ll create your own unique piece using hand-knotting techniques with gemstones on silk thread. Each knot is a moment of mindfulness, as you learn to space and secure your beads with purpose and care. You’ll leave with a beautiful, durable necklace that carries both meaning and craftsmanship—perfect for personal wear or heartfelt gifting. No prior experience needed—all materials provided!

Beginners welcome. Ages 8-17 welcome, when accompanied by a participating adult. All materials are provided. Space is limited.
