Bead Night Anyone?

I'm trying to set up a monthly Bead Night at Michaels. This will be similar to the Bead Social/UFO Night I used to host at another location.

Have UFOs landed at YOUR house??? Gather them up/dust them off and bring them to the monthly Bead Night with Julie. Don't bead alone! This will be a working class for beaders who may have questions or need a quick refresher in any area of beading. There will be no specific instruction but lots of one-on-one time with students. A great class to get motivated to finish your UFOs (UnFinished Objects), get back into beading, start a new project, or for social beading. Also, a great chance to meet new friends and see old ones. 

All attendees are encouranged to bring along some of your finished projects to show the others.

Bead Night with Julie hasn't been scheduled yet. I need YOUR input! What day/time works for you?

Come join the fun at the monthly "Bead Night with Julie" and bead yourself happy. Just $5 + supplies!

As one student used to say, "It's cheaper than therapy!" 

Class Schedule for October

I'm a new Beading/Jewelry Instructor at Michael's in East Hanover, NJ. I've taught classes before both privately and at another craft store. I'm really looking forward to teaching again, meeting old friends and making new ones. I hope to see you soon!

Classes are taught at Michael's in the Castle Ridge Shopping Center, 410 Route 10 (west bound lane) East Hanover, NJ Sunday afternoons from 1:00-3:00pm (unless otherwise noted). Cost for each class is $25.

Classes MUST be signed up for in person at the store, or online at https://classes.michaels.com/OnlineClasses/control/dateView?storeId=9860, at least 48 hours in advance (by 1:00pm on Friday afternoon). If at least 2 people are not signed up the class will be canceled. If this day/time doesn't work for you please let me know and I'll try to arrange an alternate.

Here are the classes I'm teaching in October:
