This is a lovely little bead store, but also so much more. The owners are a mother daughter team. The mom is an amazing bench jeweler. The daughter is an incredible warm glass artist. They always know just what I need to make my project come together.
It was a fun day learning to make sure rings with friends. Gerry and Stephanie were so patient with all of us. Such a wonderful place to relax and be creative. They are both so talented in many forms of beading, and jewelry making. Beautiful hand made jewelry by both. They also do custom work!
Wonderful little place to find just what youre looking for at reasonable prices. I would much rather support the small businesses like this than the corporate ones. Friendly staff that are helpful and they offer classes too!
I have just recently began going to Beads by Design. I have been enjoying the classes. Whenever I enter the studio, I always have any questions that I need answered. They have a unique supply of beads that you can create your own designs with. I will be back again.
This place is a staple of the jewelry making world here in the greater Atlanta area. Almost always has what I need and if they are out of stock they will order it!
Great place for learning to make Jewelry!
I love this little gem spot for all my beading needs. friendly and great prices.
First visit on a Saturday afternoon, went shopping for gemstone strands, basic findings and hoping to find a go to supply store for my beading needs. I found a very dusty feeling shop, more like a flea market stop, poorly organized supplies, and a very tiny bead strand selection- any kind of beads not just gemstone. The staff was polite, barely and clearly wanted to be somewhere else. I wont be back.
I love the beads and I love the ladies. You can clearly see they care about products and the customer.
Staffed by the owners who are are friendly and helpful. Gorgeous selection of artisan glass beads! Unusual in that they have both glass bead making classes along with stringing, kumihimo and wire work. (The only negative at all is the old building - there is no insulation so the hvac struggles and sometimes the lighting does too -- but not in the classrooms).
Just left, and prices are great and so was the owner.
Good, owner has a lot of knowledge.
Love it. You must go.
Fantastic place and great classes
I will never go back!!!
