As I walked in, Linda welcomed me and took me on a quick tour of the shop, taking account where I'm from, my preferred fibers, and next project. I went home with one skein of hand spun yarn from Montana that was well worth the higher price point. I can't wait to come back here!

Not cheap wanna-be native american stuff. Or tourist-y stuff.

This happened to me and my prized possessions came back to me sad! I took my beautiful family ring into Buffalo Chips and had no worries. The staff works on your stuff right there!

My husband stopped in the shop to get me an anniversary present--I was not disappointed with beautiful Montana sapphires and a Montana necklace. This place is my go to spot for all things jewelry--whether that's repair, commissions, or purchasing for that special someone.

What can you say about a store that caters to nearly any craft or hobby project you fancy -- as…read morelong as that hobby doesn't require a mitre saw or a voltage detector or a carburetor or anything similar. There isn't much to say except: let me at it...as long as my money holds out, anyway. They do a nice job of separating the types of crafts and keeping seasonal items in one location. While it might seem cluttered, it really isn't. If you think in general categories and not specifics, you'll find it. The employees do a good job of keeping things tidy. That must be no small task in a store like this. There's always things on sale or reduced or on clearance where depending on the time of the year you can find some good deals for any existing craft projects you might have or want to start

Big beads, "sorta" big beads, medium beads, medium-small beads, little beads, tiny beads, and even tinier beads barely visible to the eye. Glass beads and crystals. Here, you can buy the rainbow. Or just one color in the spectrum. Heck, you don't even need to buy a bead, you can buy stones, instead. And those, too, come in multiple sizes and colors. Some with patterns, some not. All of this leads to the inevitable -- what to do with the stash you see and buy. Make jewelry of course, or add some decoration to a favorite item. Anything you want. If making jewelry is your passion, or a wannabe passion, come here. They have all the supplies you need -- metal wire of every kind, chains in multiple sizes and styles, string, even large metal pieces to decorate or string. On the wall are some ready-made items for sale if you want to pretend a) you know the artist personally and bought it directly or b) that you made it yourself. Buy the Bead also offers classes and if you're looking for guidance or help in gathering things for your vision -- ask. It's clear they love what they do here.

This one has a great selection of more moderately priced quilting fabrics with a fairly large selection of designer fabrics. There are lots of patterns for machine embroidery, it's a Brother Sewing Machine dealer, and sells quilts as well. We were there matching some fabrics for a project and we had great success. There are large tables in the back of the store where there classes. ( I must mention the great bathrooms!) I found the store a little tricky to get to, but I'm not a local, otherwise it's very straightforward.

Spare the me the RC junk that I have only a politely passing, at best, interest in and give me the goods, which is mainly vehicles and there mostly cars and trucks, though I am considering some planes and maybe a tank in the near future. This place has it all, tons and tons of model kits and a pretty full selection of paints and tools and even Dremel bits of various types. It's hard to imagine a better set up and if you're into this kind of things, this place is a must.
