BEAD STEW Kit: “Wine & Avocado Toast”


Creating a BEAD STEW bracelet is perfect in a group setting at one of our Parties because this project doesn’t require intense concentration, which means that you can still be social and inspired by your fellow BEAD STEW partiers while creating your bracelet.

The very first BEAD STEW Party happened November 2019 at Laurie MacKay’s fabulous home in NW Calgary. It was so much fun, and Laurie and her Gal-Pals all created beautiful “Bangle-icious” bracelets.

Laurie MacKay is an accomplished Sommelier and has been a regular wine and craft beer columnist on CBC Radio One since 2006, which, of course, means she’s super-passionate about wine. Laurie’s passion for vino is vividly demonstrated in a quote on her website — Soulvines.com

To find out who Laurie invited to her BEAD STEW Party, as well as to see the bracelets her friends created and what they had to say about their experiences, please CLICK on the BUTTON below:
