The Colorado Bead Company's artful arrangers guide students through a schedule of beading classes and parties for kids and adults, helping develop personal flair and style. Each class engages up to eight pairs of grownup hands in two-hour tutorials on different facets of trinket construction, such as wire wrapping, patterning, and removing the wrappers from Ring Pops. The introductory Foundations class covers essential jewelry-making tools and how to wield them, providing all the hardware necessary to craft a newly minted necklace and earring set with beads purchased beforehand by the student. Idiosyncrasy is heartily embraced during in the Caged Stone class, which encourages apprentices to wire-wrap their own found objects. Supplies are not provided for this class, but stones ($3–$6) and wire ($4–$7) can be obtained from the showroom before the workshop. The Wrapped Stone Bracelet class results in one such wrist ornament with wire and a collection of student-picked stones ($1–$15) held together by a provided clasp and split ring, which ties together an ensemble and makes arms more beautiful than Venus's rock ballads.

Meanwhile, kids as well as adults fling open treasure chests with The Colorado Bead Company's 90-minute beading parties. Six guests are covered under this Groupon, but up to four more children or two more adults can be added at a cost of $20 per person. For kids parties only, all the necessary supplies are provided for each participant to take home a professional-looking bracelet, necklace, or suit of chain mail; adults must purchase supplies separately.
