Beadworks
338 10th St. NW, Suite 1, Calgary, Alberta
http://www.beadworks.ca/

Today’s Groupon: for $25, you get $50 worth of beads, crystals, findings, and tools at Beadworks. This Groupon is valid at Beadworks’ Calgary location on 10th Street NW.

Beadworks stocks thousands of beads, tools, and jewellery-making accoutrement to custom craft a glamorous array of accessories. Chic epidermis enhancers are born by tossing a clawful of 6mm Czech fire-polish beads ($0.25 each) onto a 12″x19″ flocked jewellery design board ($9.95), much like duriing a royal game of Yahtzee. Accrue style points with the triumphant placement of a Swarovski 16mm cosmic bead ($7.85 each), perhaps as an astral focal point. Align orbs once strung onto clear 49-strand Flexalon wire ($17.15 for a 30-foot spool) to cultivate a unified bracelet or necklace. Self-made jewellery produces a sense of satisfaction that’s unmatched even by drafting an impressive fantasy curling team or finally realizing that you’re (spoiler alert) a ghost.

The gem impassioned staff of Beadworks support curious artisans by dispensing aesthetic pointers and fielding beading inquiries. Their perpetually updated wares retain an eye on current trends with styles set to suit soccer moms and mister moms alike.
