To Bead or Not to Bead

Craft genius doesn’t seem to be in your genes. Your origami snow geese always looked more like snowballs. And remember that Christmas when Grandma sent your family a homemade angel choir? The motley crew was consigned to the patio after scaring the family dog. End the cycle of uncraftiness now...

Craft genius doesn’t seem to be in your genes. Your origami snow geese always looked more like snowballs. And remember that Christmas when Grandma sent your family a homemade angel choir? The motley crew was consigned to the patio after scaring the family dog. End the cycle of uncraftiness now and laugh in the face of genetic doom. The folks at the Griffing Center are offering a series of bead jewelry classes. With the tireless help of professional instructor Amy Werba, you will be proud to display your handiwork on your ears, wrist, or (dare you even hope?) neck.

You too can be master of beads, be they glass, metal, crystal, or stone. And hey, if that doesn’t work out, head down the hall and play shuffleboard. That has to be easier, right? Get crafty every other Wednesday from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Registration costs $35. For more information, call Sheila at 305-893-3771.
Every other Wednesday, 11:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m., 2008
