I had almost given up on this store for beads because there is one specialty bead store that is local (a single owner), just around the corner from my home, but then, we visited one weekend, when there was a huge bead sale (all the beads were on sale- *if you are familiar with me and my reviews, you know that I virtually buy almost everything on sale, if at all possible*). Complete turn-around for me. I did get lots of the brown color price range bead strands @ $1.99 each (sale price). Seven of these and then one of the next price point strands @ $2.47. I also did a separate transaction to use a special coupon. The clerk was nice to let us do that.
The bead and jewelry-making section was the only section of the store that I visited. I have been to this location before in the past, and have surveyed other areas though. It's a clean store, the customer base are mostly parents. (I like the florals because they are the best quality of fake ones out there.) There are special events/instructional classes in the front room, check the website for specifics (there is a fee). But, now, because of recent events, when we visit this shopping center, I will be stopping in to check out their bead selection.
