What is BeadingSchool Academy?

Introducing: BeadingSchool Academy; a bi-monthly beading subscription that is more than meets the eye. Unlike any other bead box, BeadingSchool Academy combines high-quality materials, educational opportunities, live interaction with fellow Academy “students,” and a celebration of everyone’s unique creativity. I think that’s pretty special! 

For a limited time, new subscribers are eligible for bonuses! Check out all the subscription details at BeadingSchool.com.

BeadingSchool Academy Subscription Box

The very first box!

September 2021 Theme: Magic Garden

Inside Fuschia, you will find approx. 170 € ($199+) worth of beading materials. Beyond the materials, two high-quality beading patterns are also included, which can be enjoyed right away!

BeadingSchool Academy Bead Subscription

With the Fuchsia level subscription, you have access to even more possibilities!

After completing the two provided tutorials, perhaps you’ll want to dive into the e-learning center, with articles, tutorials, quizzes, and inspiration boards.

Later in the month, you may join other beading buddies LIVE via Zoom! A private and exclusive platform to discuss ideas while you bead, ask questions, laugh, and share in the fun with others who are working with the same materials.

Throughout the two-month period of bead box enjoyment, you may also browse the “virtual exhibition” via Pinterest. See what everyone has created from the same contents you have received, and submit your own work to share!

Also, at the end of a yearly subscription period, you have the option to partake in an online graduation ceremony where you can exhibit your finished jewels!

Fuschia level subscriptions also qualify for priority handling, and free shipping.

About BeadingSchool Academy

BeadingSchool Academy isn’t like other beading subscriptions. The arrival of the bi-monthly package feels like an entire event; one which will unlock the door to an immersive, educational, and creative beading experience.

Every second month, we’ll explore a different theme. You’ll step into a story, where beads and components will feel like artefacts from a magical world. There will be articles introducing you the inspiration behind the themes: artistic styles like Art Nouveau or Art Deco, famous characters like Vincent Van Gogh, painter of the Starry Night, or special places like Rajasthan, the land of maharajas, or Marrakesh and its thousand-year-old colours, joy, and traditions.

BeadingSchool Academy Levels

With three different subscription options, detailed below, there is something for everyone:
