This store has a very eclectic collection, from crystals and minerals, to seashells, to glass or wooden beads... you can find a neat selection here. The BEST part about this store is how helpful the staff is with helping you create your jewelry. They will teach you what you need to know to get started, and you can even make the jewelry on site in case you have problems. The prices are MUCH more reasonable than other beading stores I have visited.

This is a nice little beachy bead store. You can find a lot of shell beads as well as findings here. There is a table in the back and available tools for use. They will help you make and re-create anything you see in the store, you just have to buy the materials.

This store looks small but it has great stock and reasonable prices. The owner and her staff are friendly and very helpful. First time here my daughter and I bought some stones and had them make pendants from them. We picked the chains and they made them with the clasps we wanted. Then I took some classes, which are free on Saturday mornings, you pay for the materials you use. Fun classes with very patient teachers. I learned enought to start making earrings and necklaces on my own.
I don't live near PB, but I always end up coming back here for supplies because they can be helpful or just leave me alone to find the perfect beads and findings. Free parking under the shopping center on Saturday mornings because there is a small farmer's market there. I think I am addicted!

And great location, make this store a hit in the neighborhood. My kids and I loved searching for a treasure. I recommend this store because they have great deals and choices.
