Very Friendly and helpful staff, Hugh selection of products reasonably priced. They offer classes that are fun and interactive, they teach you new techniques and you will leave with a beautiful piece of jewelry! read more

Awesomeness! Has everything thing you need. Organized, clean and easy to find things. Staff is outstanding.

There is no other place in a 150 mile radius of this place which not only has the selection but the helpful & knowledgeable staff found here. They sell EVERYTHING bead - as components or as finished pieces - for you to walk out the door wearing. And they also have high end trunk shows and classes going on continuously. So check them out and when you do, you'll know in your heart, you'll have to go back! read more

This place is as complete as you can find an arts and crafts store. Beats galore, all kinds of snaps and broches, and all assorted treasures for the customer to peruse. Workshops, classes, and an incredible selection of other different treasures. Outside, plenty of parking, and close to several major routes. Only minor discrepancy I noted was the absence of a good supply of hematite stones. Other than that, it is as complete as you can make it. read more

Blue Santa Beads - Storefront - Arts & Crafts Near Me - Media, Pennsylvania

These people are amazing, friendly and so helpful. I walked in with a necklace that broke and they helped me fix it. I bought the pieces they suggested and they actually fixed it for me for free. They were so nice and helpful. I would definitely go there again!! read more

Wow - a beaders paradise right in our own (new) Media back yard. Classes for kids and adults and a VAST selection of beads and beading supplies (books, wire, fishing line, clasps)/ Can't wait to take my artsy 7 year old here. read more

Extraordinary shop with a fabulous selection of fire-polished, thunder polished, & fresh water beads, tons of findings, chain and the most extensive selection of seed /bugle beads I've seen outside of New York. Lori and the college aged woman with with long hair who helped me today were so kind and knowledgeable. They sell chain by the foot, for as low as $1.60. When I wanted to see if a jump ring would fit a piece of chain I bought, Lori said, let's try it, and helped me see if the ring would fit. I was a little surprised to see clothes in their windows when I showed. I was afraid that maybe a new tenant moved in and they hadn't changed their signs yet. Apparently they also sell clothing to go with the new necklace you're making. They have classes, and lessons are $25 / hr. Lori said that if there aren't any classes going on, customers can use their worktable to work on a project. I was really impressed with this friendly little bead shop! read more

A 5 star business. They have the most amazing selection. They have every size and type of bead imaginable. It's a very well organized store. In addition, they have excellent customer service. Very nice and helpful people. It's a pleasure to do business with a store such as this. read more

I would give it 5 stars for selection - it's definitely a wonderfully stocked store but have to give 3 since the prices seemed very , very high. I found it pricier than the NYC stores where I shop. I also found the display of clothing a bit strange - not sure why they are there... is it a bead store or clothing shop? The staff was very nice and helpful. read more

Love this store. Combination of clothing and jewelry. I went in for a new chain for necklace. The sales people made creative suggestions, ones I had never thought of. Can't wait to go back. read more

Great small shop! Unique beads and findings and very helpful staff. The outside doesn't do it justice so don't pass it by on looks.

Store is really fabulous! I usually go to Bead Fest to buy beads, but I doubt if I will be going this year. Such a hassle to get there, when Blue Santa is so much closer. You really have so much stock its amazing. What I most liked is that you don't just have supplies for one type of beading, but for many. You have supplies for string, weaving, and leather jewelry. I heard people asking about thread types for some type of beadwork, and I never heard of the thread, but you had it. Your finding are really excellent, and you have a selection in gold, silver, copper and dark finishes. Your chain by the yard is great. (Can't wait to work with the ones I bought.) Your staff is very patient and knowledgeable. Most stores say they have a big selection, but you guys are the real deal. Thank you so much! read more

It's so wonderful to have a stand alone bead store locally. They have a great variety of different types of beads and beading supplies, excellent classes and friendly, helpful (but not pesky) staff. read more
