As a business, I'd say they are top-notch, with beautiful beads and handmade Jewelry! As a community? I'm just getting teary-eyed that a place like this exists!! I happened upon this business after getting breakfast across the street. And the big alluring BEAD sign drew me in. I was already trying to finish making a jewelry set for myself for a wedding I'm attending this weekend, and I got to talking to Iris. Soon after, I canceled my afternoon plans and came back with my materials. Iris so kindly taught me some tips and tricks, and ways to make jewelry better and smarter than I had self-learned, while sharing stories along the way. I loved hearing all the stories and sharing some of mine as well, and I could feel in myself that if I were local, I would be a constant customer and friend to the store! I'm so glad they have a virtual shopping option, and I know that I'll be calling on them very soon to get my beads/gem/jewelry needs met! Come for the beauty stay for the stories and kindness!!

2019 Review 90/100…read more Bear Bar is a great little shop for the jewelry crafter. The entire place is covered in different types of beautiful and unique beads. Making items you won't find in the big box craft store. They also have other materials like chains and cording. Basically anything to fulfill your beading project need. Prices are pretty good. There are some cheap items and some that range to pricey. It all depends on the quality of bead you're looking for. They have a room in the back as well where I believe they do beading classes. I've not experienced that to know how good it is but I would imagine they have some good classes for the beginner and veteran beader alike. Not a shop for everyone but if you're a crafter who likes to dabble in beading and jewelry making, Bead Bar is a must-visit.

I love in Merritt and happened to find this store in Cocoa Village. The owner is amazing and any staff I have ever encountered has been helpful and friendly. Today I came to ask questions about a ring that had lost a stone. Not purchased at this store but at disney. They had refused to help my daughter at Disney and I wanted to ask about the Pandora policy. The owner was very helpful and kind and explained everything. I understood I didn't not have a receipt and only the electronic evidence of a purchase. While I waited, she looked for the ring in her inventory. I thought she was going to offer to sell a replacement. She kindly took my damaged ring and exchanged it for a new one. I was so emotional because I was not expecting that. She owes me nothing. She was so sweet, she was not even expecting me to buy anything. I am so grateful that she did this and she will always have my business. She has a beautiful store. God bless her for her kindness.

Without a doubt, this is one of the most complete crystal shops in Central Florida. I can think of…read morecomparable great shops, one in Tampa, and another one in Daytona. Island Crystal is very impressive, having collector items such as Tanzanite, Moldavite, Libyan glass, and more advanced healing crystals such as herkimer diamonds and vogel crystals. I have not seen another shop with this type of inventory anywhere else in Florida. Island Crystal also has lots of incense, and a few racks of books. Many shops are dedicated to only crystals, and few have books anymore, which makes this place a great stop for anyone looking for information and for tools. But the tools don't just stop with the crystals, there are charts, trinkets, decorations, statues, anything you may need to kick start a spiritual journey. Additional to this, you find musical instruments used for healing, blankets and drapes, anything necessary to decorate your space. And also, there are many painting for sale. This place is literally the oasis. I recommend everyone make the trip to Cocoa and check out this place. If you are local to Cocoa, then you should stop by. As far as I know, this place will offer workshops in the future, so it will grow from a store to a community hub for people interested in spirituality and consciousness.
