Miyuki Bead Jewellery Workshop

Based in La Louvière, Belgium, Maison Castille is an artisan workshop specialising in Miyuki bead weaving, founded by Carmen, who is passionate about handmade jewellery, creativity and sharing traditional craftsmanship. Through her workshops, she invites participants to discover the refined art of weaving with Japanese Miyuki beads, renowned worldwide for their exceptional quality, uniformity and vibrant colours. Maison Castille workshops offer a true immersion into artisan jewellery making. Participants create their own bracelet, pendant or beaded accessory using Miyuki beads, fully personalised. Carmen guides each participant step by step, introducing a range of traditional techniques such as peyote stitch, brick stitch, chevron, loom weaving and bead crochet, all perfectly suited to the precision of Miyuki beads. The workshops are open to beginners and experienced makers alike, with no prior skills required. Everyone chooses their colours, patterns and style, progressing at their own pace in a friendly, relaxed and inspiring atmosphere. All materials are provided, including high-quality Miyuki beads. At the end of the workshop, each participant leaves with a handmade Miyuki bead jewellery piece, as well as the essential techniques to continue creating at home. More than just a workshop, Maison Castille offers a creative, calming and rewarding experience, ideal to enjoy alone, with family or with friends. Maison Castille workshops also make a unique and meaningful gift: offering a creative artisan experience, locally rooted in Belgium, where participants craft a one-of-a-kind, handmade and lasting jewellery piece. 👉 Maison Castille brings together Miyuki beads, artisan jewellery making and the joy of creating something truly unique by hand.
