Participants will learn the basics of the technique and create designs such as flowers, leaves, or strawberries. Easy edge beading will also be taught.
Open to all skill levels, teens and adults. Participants are encouraged to bring a bag, hat, or jacket to embellish. All other materials will be provided.
