These Kid-Friendly and Grown-Ups Virtual Charm Necklace Classes Teach Beginner Jewelry Making in a Creative Way

Running out of crafts to keep the kids entertained and creative while social distancing? This hands-on beginner jewelry class will virtually teach kids how to make charm necklaces, and it’s interactive so they’ll get their questions answered and extra help if they need.

Get crafty and social while maintaining a safe distance during this kid-friendly virtual workshop where we’ll remotely make charm necklaces together. Participants will receive a package in the mail that contains the tools and supplies before this online workshop with jewelry maker Stacey Bowers of Bang-Up Betty. They’ll be sent enough chain to make about 3 necklaces and 3 charms that you can either make separate necklaces with or add multiple charms to one necklace. You’ll be sent a private link to join a Zoom video call where Stacey will walk everyone through how to make these fun necklaces and be ready to answer questions about beginner jewelry making. This workshop is recommended for ages 10 and up. We’ll be using pliers to open and close jump rings, so if you think your little one might need extra help, we recommend being there to lend a hand.

You will be able to customize the color of your necklace’s chain and submit requests for charms. At checkout, you’ll be asked to give us a list of 5-8 things you’re interested in and we’ll do our best to raid the charm stash and send you something that suits your interests.

If you would like to return the tools after class by dropping them off with Bang-Up Betty in Little Rock/North Little Rock or mailing them back, $4 will be refunded to you after we receive the tools.

This class will be held online Saturday, May 23, from 2-3 p.m. Space is limited, and reservations are required. Invite your friends! Reserve your seats by purchasing this listing. Please, no coupon codes for classes. I’m trying to keep the prices on them as low as possible already :-)
