Making jewelry and beautifying ourselves goes back thousands of years! It is great to wear, but even nicer to make! It is very good for our brain as it develops imagination, visualization and good hand-eye coordination. And very importantly, in this age of computers and too much time spent in front of a screen, it gives us the great satisfaction of creating from scratch a beautiful object with our own hands.

—————–WORKSHOPS FOR CHILDREN———————————

We offer jewelry-making parties for children between 5 and 12 years old.

The selection of beads and findings that we bring to your home is quite impressive. We provide 9 main boxes with, in each, 36 different types of beads, all chromatically arranged. There is also a special box with only metallic findings- bead caps and spacer beads, all lead and nickel free. Our beads come in all sizes and styles and are mostly made of glass, resin, and wood. As well, we bring treasure boxes with special mixed  beads and well-stocked supplies of beautiful lead & nickel-free center pieces / metallic pendants of all types. We also carry many options for boys.

Children can make 3 creations at our parties:

 1) a beaded necklace (up to 18 inches long)

2) a stretchy bracelet

3) a simple and elegant beaded bookmark.

As most parties for the little ones are in private homes, we need to keep supplies on a smaller scale simply for space issues but what we bring is impressive enough 😉 We need about 20 minutes for setup. We ask for a big kitchen table and then another table for extra boxes. It is always appreciated to have a little help from the family when the children are young, as it gets very busy. Good natural light is always the best and quiet music in the background is soothing and fitting for this creative session. The activity usually takes between 1 and 1.5 hour.

Cost: Basic travel, gas, setup & instruction fees is $75 and then we ask  $20 per participant. We ask for a minimum of 8 people please and a maximum of 20.

Please note that GST needs to be added to the final amount.

The first 100 km of travel are included. After, 40 cents per additional kilometer will be added to the total.

AND if you want to add  gorgeous Face-painting services along with this workshop, we simply add $10 per child. All full faces, 5 mins per child done by World Champion Lucie Brouillard.
