This is a fun activity in Deptford, London
In this relaxed and creative embroidery workshop in London, you’ll learn the fundamentals of bead embroidery while bringing your own beautifully beaded bug to life. Working on fabric set within a small embroidery hoop, you’ll explore a variety of techniques and materials to create something truly unique.
Perfect for beginners or anyone with basic knowledge, this workshop is perfect for anyone looking to unwind through a slower, more intentional craft. Beadwork isn’t about speed or perfection -- it’s about patience, texture, and the quiet joy of making something by hand.
**What to expect:**
- Choose your design from beetles, bees, ladybirds, flies, moths and butterflies -- then make it your own using a curated selection of beads in different shapes, sizes, and finishes.
- Learn a range of bead embroidery techniques.
- With guidance, learn to securely attach different types of beads.
- Tips for building texture and dimension in your design.
- How to plan and personalise your piece!
Come as you are, take your time, and enjoy a few hours of creative calm. By the end of the session, you’ll leave with your own finished (or well-started) beaded bug and the skills and materials to continue your beadwork journey at home.
