JJB Summer Camp 2021
It's Back! Online Summer Camp hosted by Jesse James Beads!
New year, new fun! The 2021 JJB Bead Camp features an all new group of counselors to teach you new jewelry making techniques. Plus meet a group of new campers!
What is JJB Summer Camp?
JJB Summer Camp starts with a massive kit of beads and materials from your favorites brands...and finishes with a weeklong online event with 10 tutorials from our incredibly talented "camp counselors," plus a community of bead campers to socialize online with!
Summer Camp is fun for all ages and beading levels. Our tutorials are conducted step-by-step via Facebook live with the capability for you to bead along (or watch the replay), ask your design questions as you create, or send message your counselor a message after class!
Camp is happening online from August 2-6. All Summer Campers will be given access to a special private group on Facebook, where you can watch tutorials lives, play the replays again and again, post pictures and comments, and hang with the JJB Summer Camp crew!
Where do I watch my classes?
All Summer Camp tutorials can be watched live or watched on replay through the exclusive JJB Summer Camp 2020 Facebook Group. Joining the group will give you exclusive access to all the tutorials whenever you like.
