About the event

Are you a plant-lover who enjoys being creative? Whether you have a green thumb or struggle to keep plants alive, join us for our “Botanical Beading” program! Each session, you will create a unique accessory, piece of jewelry, or home décor item. All skill levels are encouraged to attend. On the last day, you’ll apply all the techniques you’ve learned to complete a potted project! Whether you attend every session or just one, you’ll have a blast unleashing your inner gardener from the safety of an air-conditioned space.
