I love going to this store. I drive about 60 miles to get here and I always have a wonderful time! Comparing them to the store across the the street is like comparing oranges to garlic because the difference is like night and day! The store is well lit, very clean, bright and well organized. I always feel creatively energized when I'm there because the colors and vibe is always upbeat! Even though the store is not very big, they sure know how to organize their beads and maximize the space! Their selection of seed beads is out of this world and they sell them in nice big tubes and not those wimpy little 2" square plastic bags like other places. Their prices on seed beads is reasonable too. I have been to a lot of bead stores in So. California and their retail prices are fair and not "really high" as someone else stated. It's not fair to compare any retail store with a bead wholesaler from downtown LA or the shows. This store carries lots of unique pieces like beach glass, vintage buttons, unique chain and on weekends they always bring in crystals from Beads U Need at very reasonable retail prices of real Swarovski crystals! I can't say enough good things about this store. Every time I go here I am greeted with a smile and they always make me feel appreciated unlike Creative Castle in Newbury Park. They never make me feel like just a stranger and they never pressure me to buy things...
Read moreThis shop is so organized and clean. I love that the baskets already come ready with baggies and a sharpie, so you can shop with ease.
I mainly came to check out the sales pile and I found decent stuff, some of it was a bit overpriced though. If you’re looking to buy individual pendants and charms, they have a great variety of those. They also have a solid selection of seed beads, round stone beads, and pearls.
Price is about average or above average, okay selection.
Shop owner/worker gave me space to look around. Didn’t feel pressured while I was shopping. Will come visit this shop once in a while to see if there’s...
Read moreBest bead finds! I found the most unique beads that can’t be found at Michael’s that look high end. Not only that. They were in the bargain bin so it was cheaper! This place is a gem for those who love precious stones and high end looking jewelry. They also gave me the best glue brand I have tried. Very easy one stop shop. Friendly and they even gave me free charms with my purchase! Great...
