Birthday Parties

Everyone sparkles when celebrating a birthday at Bead In Hand!
A two-hour party includes:
  • Invitations
  • All materials for making the beaded item of your choice
  • An experienced instructor
  • Plates, cups, napkins and utensils
  • Party favors

COST

$40 plus $15 per person (minimum 4).  

The maximum number of guests is 10 (including the party child).  
A $40 deposit is required to hold your space.

Scheduling
Parties are held during regular store hours, and the birthday child selects the project her or his guests will make.  You can schedule the party by phone, but you and your child should come to the shop at least one week prior to select the project and, if necessary, some of the beads her or his guests will be using.

FOOD
The project usually lasts an hour and fifteen minutes, so there is plenty of time for cake & ice cream or pizza (but not usually both).  Plan your food delivery accordingly. You may bring your own food and/or order pizza.  We have a small stove, refrigerator and freezer for your use as well. We also have generic plates, cups, silverware and serving utensils that you are welcome to use.
