The Big Bedazzle Workshop with Dolly Parton's Imagination Library

Bring the sparkle and transform an everyday item into a dazzling inspired creation!



1 hour Class size 1 to 5 guests   £6

Get ready to add some serious sparkle by joining one of our bedazzling workshops.

Bring along an item from home or buy something new in store, then transform it into your very own sparkling masterpiece.

With guidance from a workshop host, you’ll learn how to customise your chosen item with colourful gems and dazzling embellishments. From bags and accessories to home décor and more, what you bedazzle is entirely up to you!

Whether you go for a subtle sprinkle of sparkle or embrace full-on gem-maxing, this workshop is all about getting creative, having fun and channelling a little fabulousness.

Perfect for beginners and experienced crafters alike, you’ll leave with a completely unique creation that’s guaranteed to shine.

Transform an everyday item into a dazzling creation to get ready for Give Like Dolly Day on 25th September (or, as the Americans would say, 9/25). £2.16 from every booking will go directly to the charity, covering the cost of funding one book for a child in the UK.

Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library (operating as The Dollywood Foundation) is a registered charity 1121917 for England and Wales, and SC045571 in Scotland. Company registration number 06400437

Keeping everyone safe

At Hobbycraft, we want our workshops to be enjoyable, inclusive, and safe for everyone. Some workshops are suitable for children, and where this is the case, a parent or legal guardian is responsible for supervising their child at all times unless the workshop is clearly stated as suitable for independent attendance. Our colleagues and instructors are there to guide the activity and support a safe environment, and if any concerns about safety or wellbeing arise during a workshop, these should be raised with a member of staff straight away.

  • 5/5 from Ria Baxter, attended Sep 2026: I took my 9 yo dd and she loved it. We brought a memorial frame and then some letters for her room and her little sisters. We spent the whole time chatting and laughing with the other people on the workshop. She got to choose the colours she wanted and when they didn’t have the colour she wanted, the member of staff got it for her. The staff were lovely btw and very helpful. The hey showed us where the glue was after so we could purchase some to take home with us.

She was helpful, caring, chatting, genuinely interested in what our children had to say and they had a wonderful hour. Our children came away saying things like 'we felt like she was our best friend's. Would highly recommend.
  • 5/5 from Anonymised ClassBento customer, attended Sep 2026: Really lovely session to end a busy working week. It was 1:1 as I was the only one booked on but was a lovely session and fun to use resources I don't have at home. Will be doing another session again for sure.
  • 5/5 from Ingrid Foster, attended Sep 2026: Absolutely loved the bedazzling workshop. From the moment we sat down, we had so much fun. The tutor, Joanne, was so very friendly and informative - she literally sparkled throughout the session. She gave so many ideas & hints & tips - absolute delight from start to finish.
  • 5/5 from Jacky Boardman-White, attended Sep 2026: Teacher was great, very informative, she did a great job. It was a great atmosphere and we really enjoyed it. It could possibly be slightly longer? Also for the class we did, larger assortment of colours of the beads plus extra glue.
  • 5/5 from Stephen Korris, attended Sep 2026: Great workshop, thanks Vera for all the support and great chat. We love Give Like Dolly Day!
  • 5/5 from Molly, attended Sep 2026: My friend and I signed up for the class in Edinburgh, and it was so much fun! Paulina got us set up and was really friendly and helpful, and was willing to accommodate us for an extra 15 minutes because we were running late. She was very cool. I would highly recommend for a girls afternoon!
  • 5/5 from Gale Morley, attended Sep 2026: My daughter and her friend enjoyed the session very much and it was very reasonably priced

Staff were very welcoming, Lilly was a great host and we will definitely be coming back for more workshops. Great value for money. Time went too quick has we were having so much fun bedazzling!!! The world needs more sparkle.
  • 5/5 from Sarah, attended Sep 2026: This was a really great workshop - nice and relaxed, not too long and all the materials supplied. The teacher Alfie was really relaxed and patient and gave great instructions and advice on how best to bedazzle the items we had brought in. There was only me and my friend on the workshop so it felt like a private class! I think the classes are generally quite small which is nice as you get personal help n your projects. 10/10 would recommend.
  • 4/5 from Rosemary, attended Sep 2026: I wanted to find out how to bedazzle something so I could teach my grandchildren
  • 3/5 from Udkhar Singh-Gill, attended Sep 2026: This is a quick and easy technique to learn within the session. The technique is better suited to items such as book covers or make-up bags rather than clothing.
  • 3/5 from Joy Kealey, attended Sep 2026: Do the craft before offering to paying customers. The glue advised didn’t stick so half the class time was spent trying to find a glue that worked
  • 3/5 from Margaret Foster, attended Sep 2026: Not quite as “bling” as we expected. Tiny gems and glue that went everywhere. The class could have done with a bit more Dolly fun and glamour.
