My favourite bead shop in the city, a little pricey but you can find beads at good value too ! Friendly and helpful staff, very well informed and very welcoming. The atmosphere in the shop is very relaxed, I usually leave my bags in one spot while I browse the countless varieties of beads :) The shop has a huge variety of other things too, I believe they also specialise in hatmaking ! And have regular classes ongoing. Very good shop, would highly recommend it to anyone who’s interested in making jewellery !!

This place has everything. I can get almost any hard-​to-​find item here. There is a guy on staff that goes above and beyond the call of duty to find what I’m looking for. I will get his name but won’t post it, Don’t want to embarrass or offend him. He will search and search until he finds what I need
Their prices are extremely reasonable. Can’t complain about any of the merchandise I’ve bought here. Everything is holding up well.

As Laura mentioned, the bubble gum pink storefront of Beads and Bling is irresistible, as is the great name. They seem to have gone in the opposite direction of the American rappers who coined the term and instead Bling represents hundreds of different types of beads, notions, findings and jewelry making supplies, rather than diamond encrusted pimp cups and Jesus faces.
The selection here is awesome, the best I’ve seen so far in a bead shop in Dublin. They’ve got every material represented, from plastic to crystal to stone. Unlike some of the other shops I’ve visited, Beads and Bling has a great assortment of focal beads and beads that are different shapes. I found some darling little leaf earrings that basically made themselves. I didn’t have to design a thing, just threw them on some wire, and put them on some earrings. Done and done, and all of the supplies came from here.

I don’t know what makes one bead store superior than another so I brought my friend, the amateur jewellery maker, with me to Beads and Bling.
She was enthusiastic about the shop, showing me all the pretty things she wanted to buy. The shop sells more than just beads; it has all the necessary tools (pliers, wires, needles and hammers) to make your own creations.
If you’re not that creative, you can also commission one of the staff to make you something. According to their brochure, they made headpieces for the dancers of Riverdance. They also boasts about being on «The Afternoon Show».
The people who work here are more than qualified to teach jewellery enthusiasts a thing or two. In fact, the shop offers classes for all levels.

This is a great little jewelry making shop that, as Laura C. mentions, is a treasure trove of beads, findings, chains and tools. However, I’ve just gotten into jewelry-​making and if I hadn’t done a lot of research about what I needed before visiting, I would’ve felt a bit lost. The staff are kind of dippy and, while nice enough, not particularly helpful. I’m really at home in craft stores, so I felt ok, but I can see more unfamiliar people being overwhelmed. It has teeny tiny aisles that are definitely not wheelchair accessible.
But if you’re already familiar with jewelry making (and are able-​bodied) this is a great resource and it can’t be missed!

Any shop that has a bright pink storefront had better live up to its promise, and Beads and Bling do so with aplomb. An Aladdin’s cave of shiny pretty things, here you can stock up on anything you could ever possibly want to make jewellery, or just to add your own touch to something a bit plain. Each drawer brings its own lovely surprise, and the range is amazing, from precious stones to plastic stars and everything in between. If you’re into arts and crafts, this shop is a must-​see. It has any supplies you could need as well, from findings to ribbons and clasps. It does, however, tend to be a bit on the pricey side for what you get, though what you get is very nice…
