Ellie Mitchell will guide you step by step through creating a necklace and patterns, using Czech 6/0 Seed Beads and 3” Buffalo Horn Hairpipe. This workshop allows you to learn basic beading techniques, including how to prepare the string material, appropriate notes, design, and more. No prior beading experience is necessary. 

Ellie Mitchell, an enrolled member of the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe of Michigan, is the

We'll make every effort to accommodate as many attendees as possible, but seating and supplies for this event are limited and will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis.
