Without jewelry, pearls would be nothing but oyster gallstones and treasure chests would contain nothing but dirty back issues of the Economist. Embrace the power of bling with today’s Groupon for the Santa Fe Interweave Bead Fest 2011 running from Thursday, March 10–Sunday, March 13 at two bazaar locations—the Santa Fe Convention Center (Friday–Sunday) and the Hilton Sante Fe Historic Plaza (Thursday–Sunday). Choose between two options:
- $7 for one four-day pass (an $18 value)

At Santa Fe Interweave Bead Fest, 130 booths of jewel craftsmen from across the nation converge to show and sell shiny stringables and ornately painted pieces. Complimentary shuttle service whisks guests between the bazaars to see pieces like the African-inspired Kazuri-bead neck- and wrist-nuzzlers from Antelope Beads of Colorado, or Pennsylvania’s Kabela Design, animating metal into vintage-inspired charms, cuffs, and gear-shaped trimmings.
Sonoran Beads of Arizona will show off body adorners forged from vibrantly colored glass and porcelain, avoiding impractical donut-hole stringing techniques of old. Besides browsing wares, visitors can take in demos and book signings throughout each day and catch up on breaking jewelry-industry rumors inexplicably left out of newsstand gossip rags.
Those inspired to delve into the world of jewel-smithing or looking to fashion unwanted car parts into stylish collarbone covers, can choose to sign up for one of more than 90 workshops led by experts in crafting body baubles from metals, silks, and resins.
