All You Can Bead

All You Can Bead is a pop-up bead making session at The Spanish Lady in Saltdean on Thursday 19 November, running from 18:00 to 20:00. The whole thing is built around one simple idea: the beads are unlimited. You grab a drink, pick up a starter kit, and then help yourself to a pop-up Bead Bar for as long as you like, making whatever you fancy throughout the evening.

That's the main draw here. Instead of working from a set kit with a fixed number of beads, you've got a whole bar to dip into, so you can keep adding and changing things as you go. You're not limited to one thing, either. The session is set up for bracelets, necklaces, phone straps and bag charms, so you can make a few different pieces over the two hours rather than just one.

One of the best bits is that no experience is needed. You don't have to be a crafter or know your way around a bead string to get stuck in; the starter kit gets you going, and the rest is just picking what you like from the bar. It's a relaxed making session, so it's as much about hanging out with a drink in hand as it is about what you end up taking home.

It runs from 18:00 to 20:00 at The Spanish Lady, 4 Longridge Avenue, Saltdean, Brighton, BN2 8LH. Tickets are £15 standard, which is a guide price and subject to change.
