There is a reason this bead store has stayed in business this long. It has everything. From all the semi precious stones to Czech Glass to lampwork to chain to everything in between, it has everything I need to feed my beading addiction. The staff is quite friendly, and always willing to help. Prices are quite standard for the industry (many bead wholesalers enforce MAP policies on retailers, which fixes the prices on the higher end somewhat), and they have a decent rewards program.

Made a purchase for a friend’s wedding to make some jewelry and as the gal was helping me I had insinuated multiple times that I’d just bring back what I don’t use because I purchased the more expensive gold plated pieces and didn’t know if I would use it. The No return policy is posted on the front glass of their checkout but I was never told and it’s not on the receipt that they don’t do returns. I don’t regularly make jewelry and don’t have a use for the items or the store credit they gave me. They did not make an exception to the no return policy but at least they need to make it very very clear there will be no returns. Super disappointed as this is a small shop but now I’m unfortunately out a decent...
