Tassel & Dash: A Make-and-Take Workshop

Join us for Tassel & Dash, a fun and creative hands-on workshop where you'll learn to make beautiful decorative tassels in no time! Whether you're looking to add a stylish touch to your handmade projects, accessorize your bags, or create unique home decor, this class will teach you the essential techniques for crafting perfect tassels.

In this quick and engaging session, you'll explore different fiber options, embellishments, and finishing techniques to customize your tassels to match your personal style. By the end of the class, you'll have a gorgeous handmade tassel (or two!) to take home and plenty of inspiration for future projects.

You will bring the following to your class: 

  • Yarn or Embroidery Floss – Any fiber and color(s) of your choice, scraps are perfect (multiple colors make it fun!)

  • Scissors – Sharp enough for clean cuts, like fabric scissors

  • Cardboard or Book – For wrapping your tassel; I recommend at least 4" / 10 cm in length, but consider the size of the tassel you want to create.

  • Tapestry Needle – For securing and finishing

  • Beads, Charms, or Ribbons (Optional) – For embellishment (also some provided)

  • Small Comb or Brush (Optional) – For fluffing out fibers
