About

Loom beading is an ancient art form that combines both weaving and beading techniques to create a cloth-like, beaded "fabric." In the first session, you'll select a pattern and the bead colors you want. You'll learn how to set up the loom included in your supplies and how to follow a pattern chart. Throughout the session, you'll practice the looming technique so you can finish the length of the beading during the week. In the second session, you'll focus on problem-solving and finishing techniques.

Details

A $35 materials fee, included in the price of the class, cover a reusable loom, Fireline (beading thread), needles, beads, a clasp, and tutorial.

Class Policies

Ages 14 and up are welcome.

Chris Eisenberg

Chris discovered beading while recovering from an accident and the resulting traumatic brain injury. Beading was her therapy and she credits it for helping her become whole again.

She has previously taught workshops at the Autumn Artist Retreat and at Iron Mountain Arts near Port Gamble.
