Desert Bracelet Workshop: Morning Session
Join Lynnea from DarcMoon for a special morning mala bracelet workshop at Devils Kitchen Picnic Shelter.
Start your morning with DarcMoon on the Colorado National Monument for a peaceful mala bracelet workshop. We’ll meet in the cool, quiet hours just after sunrise and create bracelets with meaning and intention. It’s a great way to start your day grounded, inspired, and connected to the beauty of the desert.
DarcMoon is the creative vision of Lynnea, an artist and jewelry maker based in Grand Junction, Colorado. Since 2016, she has hand-tied Malas and crafted gemstone jewelry inspired by the high desert’s vibrant energy.
