| - I can spend hours hanging out in a bead store. There is always something new to see. Sometimes, I want to come in to just to pick up something I don't already have, or I need to finish a project. But I usually find new items that only adds to my growing list of things to finish. Today, it's earring hoops.
I find what I am looking for and the price is decent. I think there is so many choices, it's best to come prepared. Even though I find what I want, I still do a walk around. I have a limited amount of time to spend here, since I have someone waiting.
They have some very comfortable couches and magazines lying around, so if you bring someone with you, but they aren't actually interested in looking around, they can just hang out on the couch. I look up to see my husband came inside, and is now sitting and waiting for me. I have more time to look around! I guess the heat of the day was too much to wait in the car!
I love the crystals and the czech glass beads, they catch the light and the reflections are beautiful. They have plenty of this type of bead, sold by the string, as well as big bends of the larger, individual pieces for those unique projects. They also have a large selection of books, beading magazines and tools. They do offer a member ship, for a fee, paid once a year, you are given discounts. I do buy a lot of beads, but my favorite store is in Phoenix, so I don't usually buy local, unless I need something, so the membership fee is a little more than what I would buy here in a year, but it's a good deal for those that might shop here more regularly.
