Join us for this open studio day on Funky’s 20th birthday!
We’ll be drilling, wiring, weaving & creating with our favorite beads, chain, stones & beach glass.
Stop. Watch. Try.
Funky Amanda and her whole staff will be on hand creating and celebrating our 20th anniversary with cake, treats, prizes & 20% off everything in the store!
Mark your calendar for April 15-17, 2016 for our Spring bead camp for grown-ups held at the historic DeKoven Center, just a few miles south of Funky’s, on the shore of Lake Michigan. Registration opens Wednesday, March 9th!!!
Spring has sprung and we have some fun new plans up our sleeve for this camp including a beach walk at the Wind Point Lighthouse (collecting for our Sunday make-n-take), our fabulous massage therapist returns and by request, chair yoga for bead people! Camp also coincides with downtown’s new ART WALK…so if you are inclined to pop in and see some fabulous art, meet other cool artists and see demonstrations of lots of cool stuff, you’ll have a chance for a little outing late Saturday afternoon!
Learn how to do the latest bead crochet stitch that was featured on the February 2016 Bead & Button magazine cover! On April 2nd, our Indiana friend Candy Sexton will be back in town to teach us how to make this beautiful bracelet using the Single Stitch Bead Crochet technique. No prior bead crochet experience is necessary to take this class. You will learn how to crochet using this technique, how to add thread and finish your piece. Join us for a fun day!
