Beads can be used in so many creative ways: art collages, clay tiles and jewelry to name a few. Beads are inexpensive, easy to find and come in so many colors and styles. This month’s “Crafternoon” class is going to incorporate large beads to create an interesting macramé necklace. Macramé is really just a series of knots and patterns — anyone can do it. Join us on June 17 at 2 p.m. in the Friends Room at the Columbia Public Library to create your own piece of artistic jewelry. All supplies are provided. Please register soon as these classes fill quickly. See you on the 17th!
For more ideas on DIY macramé, check out these library resources and Creativebug our database on arts and crafts activities. View tons of creative ideas with instructional videos that are added to monthly. You will need your library card and pin (your birthdate in MMDDYYYY format) to use this database.
Our July crafting event will be on a Monday night and is based on a craft dating from the 15th century. Look for further details in the program guide, on our website and on social media.
