I wanted to have some quality time with my 12yr old niece. She is interested in making jewelry so i reached out to Thea and scheduled a class. We both made a bracelet and necklace each. Thea had a great variety of beads. My niece made a necklace from sea glass and rose quartz. It came out so beautiful. She really had a great time. She told me that Thea was very patient and nice....and she was . My niece asked her a million questions and Thea was so patient with her when she was having a hard time getting something. She didnt say "I"ll do it for you". She allowed for my niece to try it again so she could learn. I appreciated that. We will probably be doing some more advanced classes in the future. I enjoyed it as well. I got alot alot of compliments on my pieces the next day. If you're artsy or crafty...younger or older...definitely give it a try. If your older make sure you have your cheaters hahaha.

The good: Bracelet making was fun, the girls got to drink out of a real tea set (pinkies up!), and the hostess reading the story did an excellent job. Room for improvement: The carpet was filthy.

I’m not sure). On our way out, the girls used the bathroom which was also filthy (don’t know if this belonged to the store owner, though). All things considered, we made good memories with our family, but we won’t likely be making...

The staff at Just Bead Yourself was very accommodating and made sure that everything was taken care of prior to the party. The ladies that ran the party were very professional and did a wonderful job making sure all of the kids were having a good time. I would highly recommend Just Bead Yourself for your next birthday party. The kids all started off with the sorting hat placing them in their respective Hogwarts houses. Then the kids made necklaces with their house insignias as well as other crafts based on Harry Potter. We had pizza and cupcakes, both from local businesses...the pizza and cupcakes were great! Thank you to Thea and her staff for making my daughter's...
