For beginners, it may be intimidating to take a class. New skills can be challenging to learn, but you have more talent in you than you think. We are all artists, deep down, and our creativity is unique to each of us, we just need an outlet. Hone your skills or gain new ones in one of our classes ranging from fundamentals and introduction to advanced challenges.
.
Most of our classes don't have prerequisites, so you don't need any experience to dive in. The cost of our classes include everything you need: supplies, take away instructions, and instructor fees.
.
Find the full class schedule at www.beadologyiowa.com and join us! We require masks and sanitized hands while also making sure students are properly distanced so that we can be as safe as possible. Classes are limited to 6 students, so sign up quickly before classes fill up!

Beautiful Blooms as far as the eye can see. Yesterday was one of our longest classes, but we had a lot of fun making these gorgeous flowers using curling and turning herringbone and peyote stitches. Students had many colors to choose from and they all turned out amazingly.
.
Bonus photo: A cat named Peggy Sue! People at higher risk need to stay quarantined and we want them to be able to create beautiful items as well and join in the fun. Sharon, Peggy Sue's mom, is one of those people. She purchased a kit for the class to do on her own and decided to do it in tandem with our class. We were happy to have her there in spirit. Peggy Sue was more than happy to "help."
.
Our full class schedule is on www.beadologyiowa.com where you can register and see what safety precautions we take to make sure class is safe. If you are someone staying home, we also offer kits to enjoy your own class from the cozy safety of your own home.

Two classes this weekend. A lot of fun was had.
.
Friday was Gyrl's Night Out with guest instructor Zanetta Hoehle of @tumbled_wire_designs which was FULL. She taught us how to make wire hearts, just in time for Valentine's Day. The stitches she demonstrated are great basics to bring to new projects in the future.
.
Saturday was the Netted Helix. It's a more complex project, but our students were up to the challenge. As always, different colors and bead sizes make a huge difference and it's fun to see how each one turns out.
.
Our class schedule through March is available at www.beadologyiowa.com and you can register online there, stop in person, or give us a call at 319.338.1566. Classes are limited to 6 students, so don't wait.
.
We're open! Come in and warm up at the store! If you're staying home, you can shop by phone or video and get your items locally delivered for free as early as Monday. Ask to see if you qualify.
.
Stay warm, stay safe, and happy beading!

We wear red for women's heart health. Today we #goredforwomen because women experience heart problems much different than men, but the signs of heart problems we all know don't apply to women. We want to make sure our customers of all genders know the signs and can help the women around them take care of themselves. 10% of proceeds go to the Emma Goldman Clinic, so shop with us for a good cause. Help us make a difference in healthcare access.
