Ivy and Gold Bead Bar @ Glenarm Castle

About

The Ivy & Gold Bead Bar Experience at Glenarm Castle invites visitors to enjoy a creative, high‑quality jewellery‑making experience set against the stunning Causeway Coastal Route.  Designed for all ages, it offers a relaxed yet inspiring activity that appeals equally to adults seeking a mindful, hands‑on craft and to families looking for something special to do together. Guests can choose from three experience levels - Create, Memento and the Studio Experience - each offering its own style of engagement.

The Create Experience provides a fun, self‑guided introduction to bracelet design, allowing visitors to explore an extensive selection of premium glass and crystal beads. The Memento Experience enhances the process with luxurious touches, while the Studio Experience offers a guided session ideal for those who enjoy more personalised design support. Children are welcome to take part, with younger participants simply benefiting from a little extra help from an accompanying adult.

What sets Ivy & Gold apart is its commitment to quality. All coloured beads are crafted from glass or crystal—never plastic—and the collection includes Sterling Silver and 14k gold‑filled accents chosen for their lasting beauty. Each bracelet is professionally finished by the Ivy & Gold team to ensure durability, comfort and a refined final look. Aftercare, including restringing, is also available in-store.

Whether enjoyed as part of a day out, a group activity or a creative moment of calm, the Glenarm Bead Bar offers an engaging, memorable experience that leaves every visitor with a meaningful keepsake to treasure.
