Online Class: Protection Ebony Wood Bracelet
Join us for a guided 30-minute live class where you'll create a stunning protection bracelet using rich ebony wood beads, gold protection symbol onyx beads, and antiqued sterling silver daisy spacers on stretchy cord. No clasp needed — just beautiful, intentional beadwork you can wear right away. This class is perfect for all skill levels. Your kit (J433) includes everything you need: ebony wood 10mm polished round beads, three gold protection symbol black onyx rounds, two sterling silver daisy spacers, and clear urethane stretchy cord. Purchase your kit before class so you're ready to bead along live. We'll walk through every step together on Google Meet, from layout to finishing. Whether you're making this bracelet as a personal talisman or a meaningful gift, you'll leave class with a completed piece and the confidence to create more on your own.
Tin Box Ep. 52: Heritage in Every Bead
In honor of AAPI Heritage Month, this episode of What's in My Tin Box tells the story of seed beads — from Bohemian glass-making traditions to the extraordinary precision of Japanese manufacturers like Miyuki and Toho. Every tiny bead you hold carries centuries of craftsmanship and cultural heritage. Jamie will feature heritage-inspired seed bead mixes in curated colorways — Sakura pinks, Jade Garden greens, Pacific blues, Golden Bamboo ambers, and deep Indigo — alongside Tahitian pearls and jade pieces that celebrate Pacific Islander artistry. This is a love letter to the people who make the small things perfect. Premium Ohana members receive 10% off all TINBOX-tagged products. Whether you're a seasoned seed beader or just discovering the magic of these tiny glass treasures, join us live on YouTube for an episode that honors the hands behind the art.
Tin Box Ep. 53: Shell Yeah! Sunrise Shells and Summer Vibes
Summer starts here. In this post-Memorial Day episode of What's in My Tin Box, Jamie brings out one of Hawaii's most treasured natural gems: the sunrise shell. Found on the shores of Oahu, each sunrise shell is uniquely colored by the ocean — no two are alike, and they are becoming increasingly rare. Jamie will walk you through a simple wire-wrap pendant technique so you can turn your sunrise shell into a wearable piece of the islands. We'll also feature ocean-colored Miyuki seed beads in aquas and blues, plus the beloved "Aloha" gold plated adjustable bracelet. With 43 sunrise shells in stock across six price points, there's a shell waiting for every budget. Premium Ohana members receive 10% off all TINBOX-tagged products. Grab a sunrise shell, make something beautiful, and wear the ocean.
