Super nice people running a tiny warehouse selling beads and findings not only online, but direct from the warehouse, too. I don't know about you, but I want to see the especially natural stone and gems before I purchase them and going to the warehouse helped me find what I was looking for! I was able to see the strings of beads before I committed to the purchase. I also was allowed to pick through their bins quality findings guiding me to find the products I was looking for like silver feathers and owl heads. A fun experience overall. read more

I have been working with Alice @ AD Beads for several years now.

Ad Beads - Gorgeous Beads!!!!!! - Arts & Crafts Near Me - Fountain Valley, California

Found these guys on line and wanted to see where they were located to shop in person. I called and got their location etc and decided to go see their offerings. I met Alice upon entering who could not have been any nicer if she tried! Their store is located in an Industrial park so you do need to look for it but it's well worth the trip! They have EVERYTHING you could want in a bead store!! She is more than happy to walk you around and help you find exactly what your looking for or just let you browse through the aisles. And they have a TON of beads in all sizes. I loved the fact that they mostly sell "round" beads so I went to town. So much to see so I was super happy to have Alice helping me! She was so nice and so was David! Their prices are very fair and their selection is deep. I will be a customer for life! Oh and they ship just about anywhere!! Awesome resource for my bead habit!! read more

FIVE STARS!! AD Beads rocks! pun intended:-) I stopped in again today (it's one of my favorite places to shop, jewelry findings or otherwise) and to my delight Alice was there. Her incredible knowledge, I told her she's the Google of Gems & Jewelry Findings!! Truth. Alice is so friendly, helpful and her expertise make shopping there such a pleasure. She's expeditious, finds quickly what you're seeking, while 'digging' to get FABULOUS ideal selections. Today she helped me with wonderful crown charms: I stocked up because she helped me find fabulous variations of gold, silver, even black crowns to go with my collage and my royalty theme pieces, I cannot wait to use them in my jewelry and I'm going to use them with my vintage Swarovski pieces. AD Beads always has great new stuff + my 'original necessarys'. Alice also found for me beautiful moonstones for a special piece I'm creating of galactic (no Luke or Leia) focus. I was going to post the review after I finish my pieces but I'll post them as an update. Thank you again, Alice, for all your great help! read more
