My cousin really likes going to this store. After seeing a piece of jewlery she had made there at Christmas I decided to give the place a little look see. Wow! they really do have tons of great looking beads, I felt like I could have made any piece of jewlery I wanted. This isn't like your typical craft store, this place is for people who are serious about making jewlery, and really nice jewelry at that. I willdefinatly be back after I make the necklace I purchase stuff for. Fun Place to go....and I never thougth I would be crafty again!

Best bead shop!

by barleysue at Citysearch

This is the best bead shop I've ever been in! and I've been in a lot of them. I travel to Raleigh three or four times a year and I always plan to visit the shop and if time allows, take a class. I love it!

• Pros: great selection of beads and findings, friendly and knowledgeable staff
• Cons: kind of hard to find
