Five Elements Bracelet Making Workshop
A relaxing and creative experience exploring the traditional Chinese beads culture.
Join us for a relaxed, hands-on bracelet-making workshop inspired by the Five Elements (Wu Xing 五行). In a calm and welcoming space, you’ll design and create your own bracelet while gently exploring the cultural philosophy of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth which are not as fortune-telling but as a way to reflect on balance, energy and personal intention.
No experience is needed. Choose from a beautiful selection of beads and charms, follow simple guidance, and create a bracelet that feels meaningful to you. There’s no right or wrong, just mindful making and quiet joy.
What’s included
- An introduction to Five Elements culture
- All materials for one bracelet, strings, spacers, charms, etc
- Step-by-step guidance
- A display box to take your piece home
You’ll leave with a handmade bracelet, a sense of calm, and a small moment of connection with yourself and others.
