All You Can Bead

All You Can Bead is a hands-on making session at The Islingword on Wednesday 7 October, from 18:00 to 20:00. It's exactly what it says on the tin: a couple of hours spent working with beads, with a drink included in the ticket.

When you arrive, you'll get a starter kit to get you going, and from there you can help yourself to a pop-up Bead Bar. The beads are unlimited, so you can keep adding as you go without worrying about running out. It's a relaxed setup rather than a structured class, so you can work at your own pace and change your mind halfway through.

As for what you'll actually make, the options are wide open. You can put together bracelets, necklaces, phone straps, bag charms, and whatever else you can think of. If you've never worked with beads before, that's fine — no previous experience is needed, and the starter kit gives you the basics to get started.

It's a good one if you fancy a quiet evening of making something by hand rather than just another night out. The session runs from 18:00 to 20:00 at The Islingword, 175 Queens Park Road, Brighton, BN2 9XA.
