Join us from Monday 16th June – Wednesday 18th June or Friday 20th June – Sunday 22nd June 2025 for an experience like no other! Packed full of creativity, our main aim from the beading retreat is for you to have an informative and enjoyable time beading with expert tutors and like-minded guests.Â
You will complete around 7/8 workshops plus some additional smaller projects over the event and will be able to take all of your finished projects home with you, plus all of your new knowledge from our expert tutors. You will also be able to explore the gorgeous grounds of The Molecey Estate and make use of all their facilities. The venue has both an outdoor and indoor classroom, so we can be prepared for whatever the weather!
We have various options available for our retreat this year. Our ‘Full Retreat’ includes staying in beautiful accommodation provided by the venue and attendance on all of our workshops hosted by our wonderful team throughout the event.
