Braided and Beaded Kumihimo Workshop
Discover the ancient Japanese art of Kumihimo braiding in our popular Braided and Beaded Kumihimo Workshop with Donna at Riverside Beads in Market Deeping, near Peterborough. This creative and relaxing class is perfect for anyone wishing to explore the beautiful world of braiding and beadwork while making their own stunning bracelets.
During this hands-on session, Donna will guide you step by step through the process of creating two unique Kumihimo bracelets — a braided cord bracelet and a beaded design, both made on a round Kumihimo disk. You’ll work with materials including satin cord, 0.6mm S-Lon, colourful seed beads, and end caps, learning essential techniques along the way.
As the owner of Riverside Beads and Crafts and author of two Kumihimo books, Donna brings over 22 years of teaching experience to her classes. Her passion for the craft and clear teaching style make this an inspiring and enjoyable workshop for all skill levels.
