Inspiring a love for Crafting…

I’m Alyson, and I run Beading Brilliant.

I love teaching kids to craft. Watching them explore new ideas and try new things. Witnessing their wonder as they turn average materials into something AMAZING!! That is my buzz. And it never gets old!!

My mission is to inspire your children to explore crafting and all its possibilities, whilst also exploring and challenging themselves. Recently, a child refused to use a glue gun. Turns out she had burnt herself on a hot melt glue gun. I’m not surprised! Hot melt glue hurts! But I use cool melt guns in my sessions. So, after a little persuading, she had a go. And was so very proud of herself for conquering that hurdle. That might only be a little boost to her confidence. But little boosts make all the difference.
