Love this shop! I feel inspired when I look around at all the beautiful beads. The owner and staff are so supportive in the way they encourage you to try new things and help when you're confused on a step in the process. The kits are fun and easy since they include all that's needed. Have been going here for decades.

I am happy with Midwest Beads. Alice and her staff are very helpful and patient when I am in the store. I also have good luck with purchasing her kits. Alice has easy to read and follow kits. If you don’t understand the instructions she will take time to help you and get you to a beautiful product. I am proud to give the products to family and friends. Thank you Alice! Thank you Midwest Beads!

The owner is amazing and will help you find wonderful color combinations for your next project. The other two workers are a delight and so much fun to be around and help you with color combinations. I drive 4 hours to shop and it's always worth the trip.

Midwest Beads has a wonderful selection of beads and supplies for everyone's jewelry making needs, and the shop offers a variety of classes. The staff is friendly and very helpful, and the shop is an inviting place to spend time just browsing for beads or for sitting down to make special projects. They also sell beautiful, handmade jewelry!

This is a beautiful store with a lot of different beads, leather, charms, chain, etc. for the creative jewelry maker. The staff is very knowledgeable, and they even give you a freebie to take and make when you purchase. One of my all-time favorite bead stores.

This was the perfect place to meet up with friends to celebrate a birthday. We were able to sit and create a beautiful piece of jewelry while visiting and catching up on life. The owner was very friendly and helpful when we asked for her help. We are looking forward to our next get together at Midwest Beads.

Midwest Beads has the best beads around. The quality is top notch and reasonably priced. It is truly like walking into paradise when entering the store. Alice, the owner, along with Carol and Roxanne are always willing to help find what you need.I must also say that Alice has the best patterns for making earrings, bracelets and necklaces. They are so easy to follow. She absolutely makes beading fun!!

This is the premier (IMO) bead store in the Milwaukee area. Not only is the selection amazing, but so are the staff. They are very knowledgeable and always ready to help. Their store in Brookfield is stocked with glass beads, crystals, semi precious stone beads, findings, and everything else you would need to begin creating jewelry. Highly recommend!

Immense variety. If you're looking for something, you can find it here! Great customer service with all the beads, findings, etc., that anyone might need. ? Everything everywhere all at once! The best selection of beading materials. Took my granddaughter and she was blown away with the vast inventory. We both had a great time and a tip of the hat to the excellent service and environment at Midwest. ❤️❤️

Hands down my favorite bead store. I drive 2 hours to come here and get lost in the most magical beads and patterns and people at the store. The owner and her family are amazing and never hesitate to answer any questions, give tips, and always there to help find the perfect beads or patterns. All of the lovely beads in the photo were from Midwest Beads! Love Love Love

If you are interested in making a beaded treasure-look no further! But beware, you will likely be there for an hour and spend way more than you want to. But isn't that always the case? I was looking for something to do with a friend that was visiting and thought it would be interesting to stop in. They have tons of beads and packaged projects all over the store and beautiful finished pieces between. You can buy the pattern separately if you want a different color combination and the ladies there are very helpful.I decided to make a pair of earrings like one of the finished pieces. After buying the beads I had spent $50. for something I could have bought finished for $35. and I ended up going again to add to my project. You just get into the store and can't help yourself! It's a fantastic experience and if you have a broken bracket or necklace stop there before going to the jewelers you will likely find what you need.

Love it! Alice is amazing, always so friendly and helpful, as are the other ladies that work there. Always have something new to explore, patterns, beads, ideas! I got some “glow in the dark” seed beads that have been a great hit with friends I have made with them. I am usually able to find just what I need, and the one time I didn’t, Alice called me when she got them in and offered to mail them to me. I thought that was great customer service.
