Bring HoneyBee Heather to You:
Creative workshops that feel like a party (and everyone leaves with art)!
Host a hands-on art experience led by Mellisa of HoneyBee Heather—at your home, workplace, library, dorm, retreat center, restaurant, or rented space. Great for parties for adults or kids! These workshops are about connection, laughter, and making something joyful with your hands—no art experience required.
Offerings
Bag Charm Bar
Make it fun or make it fancy. Make it yours.
Design custom bag charms using a vibrant mix of beads, textures, and playful details. Participants can go bold, sweet, or stylish—and yes, you can bring your own charms to add in.
Great for: parties, kids, teens, adults, pop-ups
Everyone leaves with a finished charm they actually want to use or gift.
Tiny Art for Your Ears
Make a pair of totally unique earrings.
Endless options for one-of-a-kind fun earrings that will cause everyone to stop and ask “Where did you get those?!?”
A bead bar full of playful and polished materials lets participants design earrings that match their style. Clip-on and sterling silver options available.
Can be combined with bag charms or keychains for a bigger creative experience.
Paint & Sip
(with a HoneyBee Heather Twist)
Art for your bathroom walls
This is not your average paint-and-sip. Everyone works from a shared theme, but no two paintings come out the same. Expect mini canvases (4x4 or 8x8), lots of encouragement, and zero pressure to “get it right.”
The real goal? Have fun. Make weird art. Laugh a lot.
Visioning Art
Collage. Paint. Dream. Make it happen.
This guided workshop blends Mellisa’s facilitation background with mixed-media artmaking. Participants explore what they want, where they’re headed, and how to get there—using collage, paint, and intuitive creative play.
Great for: retreats, students, teams, and anyone looking to go a little deeper.
Tiny Art for Your Fun with Watercolors
An easy, joyful dip into watercolor.
Taught by a fully self-taught artist (which, honestly, makes it better), this workshop covers watercolor basics using regular paints and regular brushes—because you don’t need expensive tools to make something beautiful and have fun doing it.
Accessible, relaxed, and confidence-building.
Workshops are designed to be affordable, flexible, and fun.

“The evening was FUN. We laughed a lot, made some art for our bathroom walls and hung out. Mellisa is a great teacher and hilarious too.”
-Jess, who joined 7 friends in a very special “Art for Your Bathroom” evening in her Burlington home
“Mellisa came to our house with a TON of beads and fun things to make Bag Charms for my kids 10th Birthday Party. The kids all had a great time and I didn’t have to worry about an activity or a goody bag. And I made a bag charm too.”
