Tuesday, March 16, 2021: 7:00-8:00pm EST

Come learn how to string pearls or beads with silk thread and French wire the way a jeweler does it. Join Lauren Eckert as she shows you how to repair broken strings of pearls or beads without totally restringing the entire piece. Professionally stringing pearls and beads ensures that the beads don’t wear against each other over time or scatter everywhere if the strand breaks like in the movies. This process requires very few tools or materials, making it accessible and easy for anybody to learn. Join in and freshen up your heirlooms or make new ones.
