You will be able to choose from a small catalogue of structures, but you are encouraged to bring your own structure (BYOS) to bead. Beads and necessary crafting materials will be provided. Beading isn’t for everyone - these beads are very small. Children under 10, those with compromised eyesight, or those having challenges with dexterity may have a more difficult time with the crafting component of this event. Crafting is optional - Megan will entertain and educate you even if you aren’t ready to make something of your own. You get to keep what you make!
