Bead Boutique

Great place to buy your girlfriend something unique that she will dig and not see on anyone else out there......

Pros: Very Unique

The Bead Boutique is amazing!! The beads,charms and chains they have are all beautiful.. the sales staff are extremely helpful and i have never been to one that was this good! I highly suggest going there.... Most of the bead boutiqes i have been to have had cheap looking beads and charms while they have high quality. I think the prices are very fair!!!
have fun!!!

Pros: wide varitey to choose from

Cons: you can spend alot of $ in this store!!!

This is the coolest bead store i have ever been too! It's like being inside a giant jewelry box full of shiny beads and pearls.....My mom came to visit me from Texas and we took a fun class - to make our own necklaces. This place is for people who appreciate great service and suggestions. They also have cool silver and gold charms. Its a bit higher in price but the quality is so good i didn't mind....this place is very fun and is consistent.

Pros: Great Atmosphere, Friendly Service, Quality Goods!!!

Cons: Parking on 3rd

this is the most overprice beadshop i have been. the shop is nice looking and there are tons of staff, may be that's the reason why all the beads are so overprice. I can't believe that some of the tiny little beads are sold individually. the beads are not special either, most of them you can get it in king's road or the downtown mart.

Pros: nice decor, lots of staff

Cons: too expensive, not much variety

This is not your average bead store. It is edited down to only the most beautiful beads (mostly gemstones), findings and already made jewelry. I mean stuff that is really in fashion - that you see celebs wearing in magazines etc - not "crafty" stuff. I go there to be inspired and to find out what is hot. This is not the downtown jewelry mart, its a boutique, so don't expect wholesale prices. It's a great place to get started in beading or to make something that is truly trendy for a fraction of the price you would pay for it ready made in some shop on Robertson (celeby shopping area). While the staff may not ask you if you need help, they are super helpful & nice if you ask them for assistance in design or technique.

Pros: Beautiful, edited down selection

I recently visited the Bead Boutique to do some last-minute holiday shopping for my girlfriend. I wanted to make something for her so my gift would be more personal, and the friendly staff at Bead Boutique were more than willing to assist me in making a beautiful (and moderately priced) necklace. The staff listened attentively to my requests, and offered several tips, both on stone selection and on how to make the necklace. Although the price of the stones added up quickly, I hadn't been able to find the variety offered here anywhere else. I had thought it would have been a more intimidating experience, but the smiling & courteous staff proved me wrong.

Pros: Selection, Helpful Staff

Cons: Price

I don't usually write reviews but I felt compelled to do so after my visit to Bead Boutique! When my friend asked me to go with her to make a bracelet as a gift for our friend, I was very hesitant in going since most bead shop are...well,sort of dreary.

Upon walking into the brightly lit Bead Boutique I was immediately taken in by ambiance of this little bead shop. The beads were well organized and beautifully displayed, and I actually found the staff quite helpful! We were so impressed with the selection of beads and stones ,we ended up making a few more bracelets and some necklaces too! We were even told that our friend could come in and have her bracelet sized if it was too big! We had so much fun here we'd definetly go back.

I have never written a review in City Search but felt compelled after leaving the Bead Boutique. I was the only customer in the store and there were 2 employees in there. Neither acknowledged me until I walked up to the counter. I asked for advice and the woman flat out told me that the only advice she could offer me was to take a class or pay her to do the service. WHAT?!?? If you are looking for advice or a friendly staff, this is not the place. The beads are also way overpriced. I bought the beads that I plan on stringing for half the price in downtown in the jewelry mart area.

It's true. They are way overpriced. They do have good selection of variety of stones, but everything is way too expensive. Instructor is nice, but that's because you pay so much for classes. Other sales girls are just there to watch the store, not to help you.

I promised my wife we would do whatever she wanted and she chose Bead Boutique. I thought I would hate it but after awhile I really had fun. Now my wife wears the bracelet that I made all the time.

Pros: Fun
