I LOVE this place! The owner, Naomi, really cares about her business & will take time to show you a technique or give advice. I’ve found all of the staff to be great in this respect.
Great selection, and the prices are good. Bright, clean, organized. Definitely a great spot!

Wow, worth the drive. Lots of beads, lots of variety, an active group of patron beaders who wit and chat and work on their projects together. Nice community bead shop. So to be fair, I would give this shop a 4 star, still very good, what bumped them up a star is Shelly, their all-​star employee. Super helpful and full of tips and ideas. Thanks!

I have visited this bead store for several years whenever I visit family in the Fairfield area. My visits have primarily been on the weekends and the staff has always been very helpful and pleasant. I recently had the opportunity to shop here during the week and to meet Naomi. I inquired about a class which was scheculed to be held after my visit ended and, to say the least, I was very disappointed. However, Naomi generously offered to teach me the technique the following day! Of course, I returned and learned the technique! Naomi is wonderful and a pleasure to talk too. Several other ladies also stopped by to bead and it was an extremely pleasant time. I have considered moving to the Vacaville area to be closer to family and, when I do, this will be the place where I will be most days!

I have to start by saying this is the Best Bead Store in the Bay Area and Northern Ca. (Iv been to many bead stores in Ca., Wa., & Org.)
The selection of beads (top Quality) is amazing, if they don’t have what your looking for, I’d be surprised. They have great prices on beads and supply’s. The owner and staff are so helpful and friendly, they will go out of there way to help you learn to Bead. Every time I go to the store they have a new neckless, earring or bracelet to teach. So glad I found this place. They also have stores in Rocklin and Reno.

This bead shop is in a nice shopping center with lots of easy parking. The selection of beads was very good. However, the staff there was not very friendly. I’m a professional jewelry artist and frequently buy large amounts of beads (I spent $ 185 the first time I visited) and I appreciate a helpful courteous staff. I’ll shop there again when I’m in a pinch for some beads, but I won’t make it my primary source for my pieces.

Wow this us my first time at this location and I am in Aw!
Bead Gallery’s selections is crazy!
I have been beading for 20 years and I am impressed with these stores. Bead Gallery has everything you would ever need for beading. They have things I didn’t even know I needed:)
Naomi helped me with a beading project I was working on. I took one of her classes and she taught me everything I needed to know. Thanks for your help, you guys make me look crafty!

A friend took me here as part of a girls’ day out, and wow, what an incredible selection! You could easily spend an hour looking through everything and thinking up things to make. The staff were really nice and could find me exactly what I was trying to describe. Prices were great, too! I came out of the store wearing what I made. Fun store!

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this place!
*They have a wonderful selection of pearls, crystals (including swarovski), charms, clasps, findings, tools, wire, and pretty much any other type of bead or finding that you may need.
*They also have classes, which are really fun.
*The customer service is great and really helpful.
*The prices are reasonable. Most things that they have are marked at a good price, but there have been a few things that are a little more that I would like to pay.
*They have some unique beads which is great because I want my jewelry to be different.
I would definatley recommend this place to you!

I have been here 5 or 6 times and each time have had poor experiences. I cannot stress enough how unfriendly the employees are. I dont think I have ever seen one of their employees smile. I changed my mind while I was checking out once, because some charms I picked were in the wrong bin so I picked them up thinking they were a lower price when in reality they were 2 ½ times higher priced, and all I heard was huffing and puffing like it was my fault. I just don’t feel comfortable as a customer here and have never been treated right here. I will go to Beads on Main or shop online before I go back here ever again!

Naomi is one of the rudest employees, well I guess I can’t even call her an employee as her mother owns the store. I believe because of this she feels it is OK to treat people badly. I was in her store one day and she was so incredibly rude. They may think they are the only game in town, but I will buy on line or else where before I put anymore money in their pockets.

I try to make a point of stopping here on my way to/​from Sacto from the Bay Area, especially if I’m at Fentons! Fabulous selection of pearls and semi precious stones, as well as sparkling Swarovski crystals and findings. I don’t bother going to the gem shows anymore because I can get what I need here with very good prices, except that I always spend too much because I find too many goodies that I must have. The customer service has always been gracious and professional every time I have visited.

They have a good selection. Certainly lots to choose from when you have a project!
The customer service is OK…
I don’t get the warmest feeling when I go in there (and I go there a lot). So, the customer service has really weighed on my 3 star rating not the selection.

I like visiting bead stores wherever I go, but Bead Gallery is one of the best. The ladies are fabulous, the inventory is wonderful and very affordable, which is great because there are lots of shops that charge more without the quality that you find at BG!
The pearl section is to die for! The quality — very good-​the prices-​great!
I could talk about them forever, but if you’re in the area, pay them a visit, you will not be disappointed

I love this store. Even though I don’t live anywhere close to it, a friend and I never fail to stop by there when we’re in the area. I have been there maybe a half dozen times in the past two years.
They also have a store in Rocklin and I have been there once.
The owner has marvelous freshwater pearls at what I think is a bead show price. She also stocks super good quality gemstone strands at what I consider a very reasonable price.
The owner told me that many customers come up there from the Bay Area and I don’t doubt it. Great resource for gemstone beads, pearls, pendants and other knickknacks. Their Swarovski selection isn’t what it could be, but I go there for their other wares.

the selection of beads was wonderful. the store was so nicely arranged and easy to see the beads and catergories.
the people were very nice both at the shop and on the phone when i had questions. it’s out of the way for me… over an hour drive… but for a day outing it is worth the trouble.

I ADORE this store. Its a must that I come here every time I’m in Vacaville!
They have a wide selection of beads, pearls, toggles, clasps, supplies, chains, bails, charms, anything and everything and swarovski! Though the swarovski selection isnt as huge as I hope it would be, it is still pretty big. And I spend hours on end browsing that end of the store. So much to choose from!
The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. And the experience here is always a good one! I’m new to beading and jewelry making and they’re always glad to answer any and all questions I have.
