Loom Beading Workshop

add to outlook add to google calendar remind me

Wednesday, February 25th, 2015
6:00 PM to 8:00 PM

A traditional loom was made out of a green branch and two pieces of leather stretched from one end of a branch to the other.  A needle is then used to attach the beads.  When complete, the threads are cut and tied.  The beaded piece can be sewn onto articles of clothing or used to make a bracelet.  Today's beadwork is most often found on the yokes and cuffs of jackets or vests, gloves, mittens, pouches, and moccasins.


Interested in creating one for yourself or someone else?


The NANAIMO BEADING CIRCLE and MID ISLAND METIS NATION are holding a loom beading workshop on the second level of the Downtown Public Library.  The cost is fixed but does have a sliding scale.  Looms and materials supplied.  You are welcome to bring your own beads if you would like to work on your own piece.
