Discover the Japanese art of kumihimo braiding in this engaging class. You’ll start with the basics on a kumihimo disk, creating simple cords, and then advance to more intricate braids with beads. The class will cover setup, braiding techniques, and finishing methods so you can transform your cords into wearable jewelry. Kumihimo is meditative, creative, and produces beautiful results even for beginners.
What to expect
This is a hands-on, guided class where you’ll learn new skills step by step and create a finished project you’ll be excited to take home. The atmosphere is relaxed, creative, and supportive—no prior experience needed. Every participant gets personal help and freedom to customize their piece.
