Instructor: Tamara Allison
Begin your loomweaving journey here at Blueberry Beads! This class will teach you how to make a 3 wide bracelet by default, however, there are patterns for both a 5 wide and a 10 wide bracelet you may choose instead if you’re feeling confident. You will learn how to warp the loom for one or multiple bracelets, how to finish with a seamless technique, and variety of tips and tricks along the way. You’ll also be leaving with a fully illustrated set of instructions to keep as a reference for future projects.
For this class, you will need:
Beading Loom (We have Looms available for purchase here at the shop!)
Size 10 Beading Needles
Nymo Beading Thread
Tex 70 S-Lon
Beading Mat
Size 11 Seed Beads (1 Bag each of 4 Colors, Delicas are recommended because they will lay the prettiest!)
Jump Rings (5 or 6mm)
