I found this little gem of a bead store on a Google search, and I'm really glad I did! They have allot of interesting beads, and other accessories, and the customer service is top-notch!!! I found my new go-to bead store. ?

While I was visiting Albuquerque, my pearls broke, and I decided to find a place to have my pearls restrung. I wanted to have knots tied between each pearl to make it more secure. I found The Bearded Iris hidden away in a strip mall.When I walked into the store, I was greeted by several friendly women. I met the owner, Danielle, and told her what I was looking for – – someone to repair my black pearl necklace. She said, “I can do that”. She agreed to tie a knot between each pearl—I wish I would have had that done originally. I wasn’t going to be in town for long, and she was able to meet my deadline! The price was reasonable, and she did a great job!The Beaded Iris is a bead shop and much more. TBI has all types of beads and beading supplies. They have beautiful beads from all over the world: the Czech Republic, Africa, Italy, and Japan—to name a few. They also have beaded necklaces, earrings, bracelets, and broaches. Besides beads, they have classes: knitting, beading, and wire wrapping.The Beaded Iris is a place to join together with others to create works of beauty—“like poetry when it comes from your soul”.

Great selection of all types of beads, including delicas in a large variety of colors. The owner is lovely, kind, knowledgeable, and was very helpful and generous. She actually gave me a partially used tube of glue because they were out of stock. I will most certainly go back there for my beading needs. Highly recommended.

I giving this store low rating because of the messiness and prices. Options for better pricing Are Thunder bird, the bead store, and online Fire mountain.The ladies running Iris are super super sweet and kind. I chatted with one of the ladies. She shared that they where reorganizing. The Chaos was not conducive to shopping. Hopefully things will change. Until then...

I have been a patron for many years. The ladies who work here are wonderfully knowledgeable and delightful to work with. The owner is a sweat heart, always ready with a kind word and cheerful smile. This is one of my very favorite bead shops in Albuquerque. Always my first stop when looking for beads, supplies and inspiration.
