Such a lovely variety of gemstones and beads. I've been here a few times, and there's always something new that I've never seen. So helpful and friendly, too! Just great people!

Today my daughter treated me to Rare Earth Beads and Crystals for my 44th birthday. When I walked in we were greeted warmly by the sales associate Jade. This was my first time in the store, and was excited as I slowly walked through feeling the vibes of the gemstones and crystals. I have many stones but came to purchase 2 new sphere additions to join my Unakite. I happily purchased a Blue Apatite and Rhodonite with the expertise of miss Jade. Thank you, for your warm hospitality and knowledge of each stone. You will see me again. -Nicole

Finding soothing activities after a long work day can be a challenge but this class met the brief! Gabby the instructor was very sweet and gave gentle guidance without being overbearing. Tons of fun and the necklaces and beads feel worth the price of the beginners basic stringing class.

This shop is sooooo cute. Also a bonus, it’s so well organized and everything is easy to see. Everyone working was so nice and helpful too. We took a little beading class and Gabby showed us how to make a bunch of different things. So fun!! I want to take one of the other classes here too

Had such a great time with the basic stringing class tonight! So relaxing, and informative. Gabby was great, so nice and helpful. I would’ve made the bracelet too small, but she helped get it the perfect size for me. Definitely recommend!
