I visit the shop 3 to 4 times a month and find the shop full of Toho and Miyuki beads in various sizes. Lots and lots of Firepolish, Duos, Crystals, gem stones, and specialty shaped beads. They also feature new beads in the shop as well as a good selection of beading tools and supplies. The owner and associate are very helpful and knowledgeable of color combinations, stitches and store products. They have created a friendly community for beaders.

The smell hits you when you walk in and it keeps lingering. The gentleman was nice. The prices are steep. Very limited on bigger size beads. Mostly smaller ones are there.
I wouldn’t go back personally.

All the beads were plain...nothing interesting stood out and the prices were equal or higher than the craft stores. When we came in 3 women who worked there were sitting in the middle assembling jewelry. My friend and I openly discussed our confusion and need for assistance in finding some things and were offered no help. I even asked one of the women a question and she either wasn't paying attention and thus didn't hear me or just flat out wasn't paying attention. We left and had much more luck at Joannes Fabrics.

Just went to check out their beads. So excited to find a small business bead store! I just asked about some bead strand prices and honestly they are way over priced. Just the crystal round beads, wherever they sourced them from, I have gotten the exact same ones cheaper online. Anyways, I didn’t end up getting anything. I placed the beads I was going to get back where I got them and when I was going to head out, the lady who is apparently the owner was at the front desk, I was saying “thank you” basically for helping me with a question and she just stared hard at me! I know she was looking at my pockets thinking I stuffed them or whatever but knowing this store was a family business, I would never steal from them! I own my own jewelry business so stealing from another small business isn’t what I would do. Although they did have some nice beads, I won’t be going back or giving them my money just for the way they had to look me as if I was stealing. I really should’ve asked if she wanted to check my pockets. After a while of checking me, she just continues to say “have a nice day”. I did not like the vibes in the store from the lady and the guy who is apparently her son. I saw another review about how they kept thinking they were stealing and I can totally relate to that review. This place is alright, wouldn’t really recommend.

Wow! What a treasure trove I found! This entire time, I've acknowledged this shop but today is the first time I've entered. Those that know me know how much I love gemstones. I normally go to Hobby lobby or Michaels for my beads. Well, forget that! I am actually going to quit the chain stores and shop here. Their prices cannot be beat for genuine semi precious gemstones.Take a look at my pictures to see most of what they have to offer. They also offer classes. Come give Adam and his mom a visit, they are good folks!

I recently started a small online jewelry boutique so I decided to check them out. As soon as I walked through the door I was greeted with scowls from the owner and a guy who appeared to be her son. They both were literally staring at me to the point where I started to walk out however I told myself it couldn't be that bad. When I started to go down the aisles and they were no longer able to have their eyes on me, they both disappeared from the front desk and I am almost positive that they went to the back to watch cameras to make sure that I was not stealing. Ironically as soon as I came from the middle aisles and back into plain sight, both of them reappeared! The guy was so visibly shaken by my presence his neck was starting to turn bright red. They were so rude and dry with me no one even offered me a shopping basket to put my beads in. I noticed the basket as I was checking out and I said wow I didn't know you guys had baskets that would have been nice to know. Well what they don't know is that I would never steal anything from them and I spend hundreds of dollars on bead supplies and they will NEVER get any of my money again!! The are clearly racist and boy it showed!!!! Disgusted and disappointed
