No idea where to start?
Perfect, that’s exactly what I’m here for.
I set up Beads and Bows to make needlework feel easy to get into, not intimidating. You don’t need any experience, and you don’t need to have everything figured out before you begin. And if you have lots of experience we have a wonderful range of kits and materials that will inspire you to do more.
We’ve created a space where you can spend a few hours doing something creative, something good for the soul. Learn from an expert in their field, teaching you the skills to create something wonderful. Creating, making, and sharing in the heart of Penrith.
