Birch Bark Necklaces @ North House Folk School

  • North House Folk School 500 Minnesota 61 Grand Marais, MN, 55604 United States (map)

Whether woven into a basket, a shoe, a backpack or necklace, birch bark is a beautiful material, with natural tones of white, grey, brown, yellow and even pink depending on the tree, the harvest and the layer of the bark. Highlight the variations of the bark (and your fine motor skills) by making a birch bark bead necklace. Students will split bark into its many layers and master the three-fold and four-fold bead pattern by practicing them over and over and over again, creating a few dozen beads. We'll also cover the birch bark cube to add an accent pieces to your necklace and necklace assembly. Materials fee includes all the components needed for a completed necklace.
