Where Can I Buy Nice Beads

Hi R.! There are quite a few places around for good quality beads. You might try Another Bead Please! in the McClintock Fountains shopping plaza on the NE corner of McClintock and Warner (Tempe) or A-Z Beads on Priest, north of the Arizona Mills Mall. There is a place in east mesa down by Higley and Baseline, but I don't recall the name at this time - they're more of a wholesale retailer, but individuals can buy from them too (their selection is fabulous, but their prices are a little higher than most, unless you have a retail license).
Good luck!

I second and third the votes for BEADS GALORE in Tempe - I LOVE that place. Be careful though, you could spend a ton of money! Not becasue their prices are too high (they're not) but because they have ssssoooo many great things. I almost fell over the first time I went there. I have also bought items on eBay, but again, be very careful. One time I ordered pendant type beads with a hole in them. They looked great in the picture, but the back of them was totally unfinished (no shine, very rough cut). Have fun!

I'm not sure in mesa,but there is one in Tempe on Priest between Southern and Baseline called Beads Galore.

You can find nice beads at Michael's or Joann's. I've bought some nice ones on ebay as well...

Beads Galore!!! I think it's still in Tempe near Arizona Mills. Be sure to slip your cash or debit card in your pocket and leave the purse behind. They will not allow you to carry anything into the store. They only allow your person. Otherwise, you will have to get a locker for your purse. Happy shopping! =)
