      This was a great bead shop! Julia and her husband own it and she was oh so friendly and very helpful and knowledgeable. They have a wide variety of Czech glass beads, shells/pearls and semi precious stones. I went for the semiprecious stones and the amount they had and the sheer quality of the beads were amazing. Julia showed me the super high end beads and the arusha sunstone faceted oval beads were the most amazing quality I have ever seen, and I work in the crystal business. Although they were out of my price range, they were priced as they should be, along with all their other beads. I found some stuff that I didn't even know could be in a bead form!!! Definitely recommend checking out this place if you want quality!!!

      The last picture I posted was what I made from some of the beads I got mixed with beads I already had!

      Really love this place! I've made two bracelets and fixed a necklace. Both the owners are super friendly. I think this place has a better variety of beads laid out so you have a large selection to choose from. And I like how one of the owner can pretty much tell you the origin story of any bead out of the thousands they have. Def my fav activity in SD!!

      This place is a gem! There are thousands of options to choose from and they will help you put it together, or you can make it yourself. Very adorable too. They have been open since 1992!

      Fantastic place. Wide selection of quality stones and beads. Great service. The owner was very welcoming and all staff were helpful and friendly. If you are looking for a place to stock up on your jewelry making supplies, look no further. Definitely one of the more reasonably priced stores I've visited.

      I want to thank Julia especially for her kind generous heart. These people are doing a great service, empowering us to create our own jewelry. They are wonderful patient teachers. I left in tears of joy and gratitude. Take your time and explore all the myriad possibilities they offer - a super place to take your kids! Wear your creation! Be happy and proud!

      I have been shopping at this store for 20 years when Julia first bought the shop. It started with my 11th Birthday party- fast forward to today and I have a small hobby jewelry business. I've taken multiple classes there- the main 2 was the wire wrapping/ earrings class and the second is the birds nest class. I love that they are set up to bead and take classes!
      This small business feels like my 2nd home (I spend quite a bit of time beading there) My nieces who are 8 and 10 also love hanging out at this spot- its a great place to bring kids to get them doing some things hands on.

      If anyone could use your business during this uncertain pandemic era it is Juan and Julia and their beautiful shop.

      So I'm not into beads, I went there for a friend, but they had some interesting stuff, it's a well organized and clean shop, & the owner seemed nice.

      I love this store and I love the owners more. Great people with my favorite hobby. Always something new! Just real people loving what they do and passing it all along the way. They will help with whatever you need even look things up if they don't know. That's real customer service. Thank you and can't wait to see you both again.
