Have you ever wanted to learn to Bead Loom, Bead Applique, Lazy Stitch, or 3-drop peyote stitch?

Our instructor Richard DeCrane can teach it all! Just choose one of theses techniques and he can help you achieve your goals!

Lazy Stitch: Used on moccasins, bags, & regalia outfits

3-drop peyote stitch: Bead around staffs, walking sticks, needle cases, & anything cylindrical.

Bead Loom: A loom needs to be purchased or brought from home. This technique is used to make bracelets, hat bands, belts, etc.

Bead Applique/Rosette: Can be used on many mediums but closely resembles bead embroidery. You can learn this technique by making a beaded rosette like in the picture displayed.

*IMPORTANT* Each class session our instructor can teach multiple techniques, but he only has enough time to teach 1 technique per class per student.

**IMPORTANT* If you would like to learn more than 1 technique, you will have to sign up for the next class session & choose a different technique since the instructor can only teach 1 technique per session.

Supplies are not included, available for purchase at store.

Students must enroll 24 hours before class starts.

There is no class minimum student enrollment.

Students will not be given a refund/credit for no show if class is scheduled.
