Beginner Jewelry Making Workshops
Make your own pair of beaded earrings from start to finish using Miyuki glass seed beads!
This is a three-hour workshop in which you will be beading non-stop! Learn the basics of bead weaving with no experience necessary.
Be prepared to make mistakes! This is a small-group workshop, designed to ensure that enough help is available. You will also receive your own set of instructions to use during the workshop, which will assist you along the way. Get creative and walk away feeling accomplished.
Option 1: Create a small rectangular pair of earrings (see photos) - in which you will learn to do square stitch with a beaded fringe. 3 hours is the minimum time it takes to make a pair like this as a beginner.
Option 2: Create a SMALL triangular pair of earrings using brick stitch and a beaded fringe.
(Note that the triangular earrings pictured are larger and more complex than what will be taught in the group - these generally take longer to design and weave; however, the same technique will be used.)
By the end of the class, you will have a pair of earrings to take home or wear, as well as a little more patience than before.
What you'll get
You will walk away with your own pair of seed bead earrings, designed and made entirely by you! You will also have gained a new skill and are welcome to keep the instructions should you wish to keep beading. In the case that you do not finish (rare) you can take all the materials necessary to finish your earrings at home.
Knowledge required
Suitable for beginners, with good eyesight and motor skills. Recommended for ages 13+.
What to bring
  • It is recommended to have good eyesight and fine motor skills as the bead weaving is done using tiny beads and a needle and thread. Please bring magnifying glasses if necessary.
  • You are welcome to bring drinks and snacks to the workshop.
Suitable for

Alana Rain Art & Therapy

female Women-owned

I am Alana (she/her), a visual artist, jewelry-maker, and art therapist based in Brisbane.
I began my career in Fine Arts. After graduating with a BFA, I slowly built a contemporary art practice making ephemeral art installations and finely detailed drawings. Later, I spent a year living in Oaxaca, Mexico, where I learned a ton of new crafts; this also spurred a deep passion for traditional arts and crafts as well as an inquiry into the benefits and importance of making things by hand. Later, I completed a Master's in Therapeutic Arts Practice and have since been combining all of my interests and skills into unique workshop offerings!
The world needs more creativity and play – this is at the heart of joy, innovation, beauty, and healing! Creativity can help us out of our personal and collective dilemmas:
"How do you respond to a dysfunctional world? Create. Create something new. Anything. Especially what starts a fire in your heart. That's the energy these times crave." - Xavier Dagba
Creating together is truly powerful - learning, experimenting, and making mistakes together make group class experiences fun, supportive, and memorable.
I have taught in festival settings, women's retreats, and schools. Seeing the incredibly diverse and unique ways people express themselves creatively is my favorite part of teaching and is truly inspirational (despite what you may think about the "quality" of your work!).
