"Dragonfly Designs makes a home party super EASY. Just had them host my 14 year old's birthday party and at my request, they brought teen projects that had my girls involved from the get go. They are so hard to please at that age so this was perfect. Great selection of beads and the teens love the live, laugh, love pendant pieces. We all need a bit more the live, laugh and love. "

All I can say is "wow!" My daughter's 7th birthday party was a success thanks to Dragonfly Designs wonderful Jewelry making theme and fantastic instructors! I was quite impressed with the selection of quality beads that the guests were able to use. Each person had the opportunity to create 3-4 pieces of jewelry including 2 bracelets, a necklace and a hair comb. It was a thrill to see everyone delight in their beautiful creations! We've received such rave reviews from everyone being that it was a unique party theme that they hadn't experienced before. I would highly recommend this to anyone!

Dear Stacee,
I wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful party, the girls had so much
fun and LOVED it.  Both Christine and Jen were fabulous with the children, so
patient and organized.  Few parents commented that it was the most stress free birthday party with 6 - 10 year olds.  Thanks so much for making Safiya's
birthday so special and memorable.    Thanks so much again and I will look forward to enrolling the children in summer camps and taking a class myself.

Dragonfly Designs is FABULOUS!!  We just celebrate our 10 yr. old's birthday with them and are elated with the results.  The staff was professional, courteous and polite and kept all of the girls engaged for the entire party.  The beads were beautiful and the finished products were high quality, sturdy pieces that the girls could wear for years.  This may just be the easiest party I've ever thrown.  I HIGHLY recommend Dragonfly Designs.  I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot more of them as many of the girls at our party want to have them for their upcoming parties!  Try them...you won't regret it!

"Dragonfly Designs just help provide an unforgettable experience for my daughter and her friends for her 7th birthday. The girls had a blast and the masterpieces they made are beautiful. Our Fly Girls were wonderful hosts and so helpful and patient with the kids. The selection and quality of beads was top-notch. I look forward to having the crew from Dragonfly Designs help host another party soon!"

I hired Dragonfly Designs to host my daughter's 8th birthday party and it was Fabulous! The crew arrived on time, brought all the supplies and set up in no time at all. The quality and selection of the beads is amazing and the wires and clasps are of high quality. The Dragonfly crew is so great with the kids and really kept the girls interested. They were able to make bracelets, necklaces, earrings and more. Great quality jewelry was made and my daughter is interested in signing up for the summer camp/daycamp offering. Many of the kids wanted to keep going even when the 2 hours was up... it was fun for everyone! I Highly recommend Dragonfly Designs.

What are the differences between the Birthday Packages?
All of our Birthday Party Packages are appropriate for ages 5 & up, teens & tweens.

The Beaded Birthday and Bling Fling are the same party tailored to fit your party size, either 10 or 15 participants with the opportunity to add additional participants at an added cost.

The Beaded Birthday Deluxe includes all of the items offered during a Bling Fling or Beaded Birthday and also includes a handmade  personalized necklace, bracelet or earrings for each participant to take home with them as an additional party favor.

Beaded Birthday Deluxe Personalized Jewelry:
Dragonfly Designs design staff create each personalized necklace, bracelet or earrings and bring them to the party completed and gift wrapped for each guest. You, the party host, help design each piece by choosing a custom color pearl or crystal for each guest.

*1 hour party with 1 trained party host:

A more economic version of our classic birthday packages the One Hour Birthday is short, sweet and simple. At this party your guests will have the opportunity to make a necklace/bracelet combination and wear them home.

The Birthday Party To Go is a kit specially designed to fit the needs of parties outside of our service area. Includes top quality supplies, party favor pouches, tools and instructions.

Birthday Parties

What happens during the jewelry making parties?
After an introduction we teach the children how to design a bracelet and then each guest is offered the opportunity to create any number of beaded projects. (Necklaces, earrings, hair combs, key chains & bookmarks are some of the options that we bring to each party.) We ensure each child makes jewelry that is a perfect fit for that child. Children select from a huge array of color coordinated beads made of the highest quality materials! Our "Fly Girls" are available to assist with design help, bead selection and finalizing each piece with a toggle clasp. 
Each party participant receives an organza gift pouch to store their newly handmade "party favors". Our "Fly Girls" need approximately 15 minutes to set up and break down beading supplies.

My child likes the color "blue" will you be sure to have her favorite color beads at the party? What are your beads made from?
We bring a huge selection of color coordinated beads made of the highest quality materials such as Czech glass, fresh water pearls, and semi-precious gemstones! We have a bountiful selection of all colors of the rainbow.
 We encourage you to read the comments our happy customer's have made about our jewelry making parties by visiting gocitykids.com or yelp.

What is the best age to host a beading party?
At Dragonfly Designs we tailor the party to the age and interest of the children we are serving. Our highly trained staff have both a background in working with children as well as extensive jewelry making knowledge. We come prepared with everything we need to make the party a fun and engaging experience for children ages 5 and up, teens and tweens.

How much space is needed?
We have found that party guests enjoy sitting together to work on their jewelry pieces. If you have a large dining room table or kitchen table that can accommodate party guests and 1-2 "Fly Girls" that is ideal.
 We bring lots of beads, so the more table space that we have available the better, however we will work with what space you have!
 Fly Girls also need a surface to complete the childrens projects, a separate countertop or tray works well for this purpose.

When should I serve the cake/food?
Please plan to offer your guests food and drink either before or after the jewelry making portion of your party. Please no food or drink on the beading tables.
 Often hosts like to invite the party guests 15-30 minutes early for some light snacks to ensure no one arrives late and misses out on the beading!
