Crystal Bead Bazaar

Information may not be reliable

I opened my store in June of 2003 as a result of being frustrated trying to find just the right beads and findings without having to resort to ordering on line or through a catalog. Well, that and the fact that I could not stop buying beads.

Now I have the pleasure of buying beads for all of you. I have always been fascinated by faraway lands and exotic cultures, and the global aspect of beads has always interested me. I place an emphasis on the origin of the various beads I carry. Maybe it is because man has been stringing beads since the beginning of time, but I find something very basic in working with beads.

My aim is to provide a friendly, comfortable atmosphere for all, no matter what skill level, to share in the comraderie of beading.

Join your friends at Crystal Bead Bazaar every Thursday night for a session of open beading. Bring what your are currently working on, that technique that has you stymied, or shop for a new project....after all, everything is 10% off on Thursdays!

Crystal Bead Bazaar recently celebrated it's seventh year in business. When I started this journey seven long years ago, I never imagined it would take off and soar so far! I owe my success to you, my wonderful and loyal customers. Thank you for making my dreams come true.

A big shout out to the Three River's Glass Beadmakers for holding their trunk show during our celebration, and to the members who gave up their time to put on demos of lampworking. Everyone really enjoyed it.
