Design and make your own upcycled necklace in this relaxed, hands-on workshop using a curated collection of secondhand beads.

Spend two creative hours designing and making your own upcycled necklace using a curated collection of secondhand beads, including glass, pearls, shells, wood, plastic and more, all sourced from op shops and old jewellery. It’s a relaxed, feel-good workshop where you’ll slow down, explore colour and texture, and craft something just for you. No experience needed.

You’ll have full access to my bead collection – plus findings, string, tools and everything you need to create a one-of-a-kind piece.

I’ll take care of the final touches so your necklace is secure and ready to wear when you leave.
