Beads By the Bay is a full service bead store and garden shop, perfect for do-it-yourself-with-a-little-help beading and gardening. It is a cute and adorable shop, like a museum of beautiful tiny things that brings joy. The store has an amazing selection of beads, trinkets, jewelry, and jewelry making supplies from around the world, plus tools, findings, crystals, plants, pots, pottery, and fairy garden supplies. There is also a whimsical garden in the back with succulents, air plants, scented geraniums, and a little pond. The helpful and kind owner is lovely to talk with and will help with whatever is needed, including expert jewelry repairs done quickly and for a reasonably price. Visitors can create on site at the potting table or in the indoor/outdoor classroom space. A sweet shop cat loves to lounge in the back garden. It is a perfect place to pick beads, make a bracelet or a fairy garden, and feel very welcomed. Customers are encouraged to check it out and support this small business.

Loved the store. Perfect for a date picking your own beads and getting your hand picked creations fixed in place by expert hands. Also, Susan is great and I hope she gets a lot of lemons on her tree this year!

We love visiting here when we come to town. My daughter always gets enough beads to make a bracelet. And today she made a little fairy garden! It was an absolutely lovely day. The woman who owns the store is so nice and helpful.
