Bead Artist Emporium

Our goal is to provide you with everything needed to fulfill your artistic vision, from basic essentials to whimsical, one of a kind pieces.

Because we know how tempting all our beads are, we keep our prices as low as possible so you can own as much as you like.

To help you with that overwhelming desire to purchase all of our beads, we offer the largest selection of individual beads in the area and offer most of our strings in 8in (not full 16in) lengths. This way you can buy what you need, when you need it!

Our buyer travels to bead shows all over the country looking for that special purchase one-of-kind or stones at just the right price.

Our selection is incredible.

We are always on the look out for new instructors to keep our classes fresh. If you are an instructor or know of one and want to join our beading mission please contact us at

And if there is something we don't have but you cannot live without - we will make the effort to find it. And with a prepayment, we will special order for you.
