Macramé Jewellery

Make marvellous macramé jewellery in this one-off three-hour workshop.

You will learn how to make your very own chunky macrame jewellery that you can wear or gift with pride. Your macrame makes will include a necklace and matching earrings and a bracelet or two.

Macrame is a very mindful craft and is super easy to learn. This workshop will introduce you to the key knots needed to create endless wearable art pieces!

Tutor Bonita Keay is a passionate crafter and always says making is part of who she is! She started her handmade business journey in 2007 when her children were small and now sells regularly at craft fairs (including our Attenborough Arts Centre fairs!). Bonita is also an experienced tutor, sharing her knowledge, skills and passion with adults and young people, inspiring creativity and wellbeing wherever she goes. She sources all materials ethically and sustainably, supporting other small businesses where possible.

All materials will be provided.

This 3-hour workshop will start at 6pm and end at 9pm.

Participants must be aged 14+. Under 18s must be accompanied by a paying adult at all times.
