Great art shop This is the place to give wings to your creativity. The best part is the classes for all levels from beginners to advanced. The collection of stuff they have is pretty extensive and the prices are good too. You can get nice assembled pieces from home and gifts from here. The customer service is great too, a very helpful and professional staff

Wonderful resource I adore this local bead shop. It has everything I need to make any project I might have, plus they have a knowledgeable staff, an array of classes and plenty of already made projects.

Love this store. The shelter in place kits are awesome! I replaced the plain button in the kit with my grandmother’s antique button. My daughter loves hers, too!

I had a wonderful experience with Kim today. I needed a necklace/chain for a pendant that was a bit heavy. She had great suggestions and within 20 minutes, I walked out with a chain that was strong and fashionable. I highly recommend Bead In Hand.
