Blue Door Beads

We’re so much more than just a bead store! Staff are happy to help with design questions, and finishing services are available for a fee. Come create with us!

We are a make & take environment where customers can shop for beads, have a seat at our work table, and create a fabulous piece of jewelry & leave with it finished! We also offer classes for all levels, jewelry trunk show openings, repair services and parties.

Hey Facebook friends! Join us on Instagram for latest chats, class info, upcoming trunk shows and more. We are simplifying our social media platforms and only posting from IG now a days... plus our page is so old that FB is disabling it and we aren’t ready to say goodbye to you, so follow us on IG! Thanks for all the FB ❤️

Looking to get into resin jewelry and don’t know where to start? We just started carrying UV resin! Unlike the two-part resin we currently have, the UV resin is just one bottle, no measuring and mixing! It also sets in 20 minutes under sunlight or a UV lamp! (I don’t know about all y’all but I LOVE that instant gratification). Perfect summer project to really take advantage of that summer sun! ☀️ @ Blue Door Beads

We’re so excited to be able to let in more customers now! When you come in and see this sign, please stop and wait for staff to give you the “Ok” to come in. We are still requiring everyone to wear a mask at all time while shopping. Stay tuned for more updates as things slowly open up! 😊 Thank you for your patience as we’re continue to make adjustments!
