🪩 Drop-In Style. Come by anytime during public hours!
Create colorful beaded keychains bursting with personality, texture, movement, and charm during this playful drop-in crafting activation at The Shiny Shop. Using beads, clasps, wire, string, charms, and tiny treasures, participants can design custom accessories for keys, backpacks, bike bags, purses, zipper pulls, lanyards, or everyday essentials in need of a little extra flair.
Whether your style leans maximalist, nostalgic, sparkly, sentimental, funky, sporty, chaotic, or ultra-coordinated, this activation celebrates the joy of creating tiny objects that travel through the world alongside you.
Think friendship bracelet energy meets commuter adornment meets personal talisman. Tiny project, big main-character energy.
Materials include:
• Colorful beads & letter beads
• Key rings & hardware
• String, elastic & wire
• Clasps & connectors
• Charms & decorative findings
Perfect for all ages and skill levels. Make one quick accessory or settle in to create a whole collection of wearable tiny treasures.
