Private Lessons
Beads ‘N Things specializes in Private Beading Lessons!  If group classes just aren’t for you, then consider a private beading lesson at Beads ‘N Things! Private lessons typically last 90 minutes and may cover any of the beading disciplines described in the list below. Give us a call at (585)586-7230 to discuss what you would like to learn, find out about our current lesson rates, and book your private lesson today! Private lessons normally accommodate one, two, or three people (maximum) so come alone or bring a friend... or two!  A $25 registration fee, per person, is required to reserve your private lesson. The cost of supplies will be due the day of your private lesson. To register, you may provide a credit card over the phone or register online.

Beads ‘N Things Learning Center
We have developed the Beads ‘N Things Learning Center for those customers who may be time crunched or penny pinched and do not want to commit their time or money to a formal beading class. 

Our customers have found the Learning Center to be the perfect solution to help them brush up on basic bead stitching skills or introduce them to working with seed beads for the very first time.  Stop in today, sit and relax at our Learning Center and discover how easy bead stitching can be without the pressure of keeping up with a class! (The Learning Center currently features Peyote, Two-drop Peyote, Brick, and Herringbone stitches.)
