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!!

What cute, colorful indie bookstore! I was exploring the Melbourne area with my family this weekend…read moreand we came across this shop on IG and decided to stop in. So glad we did! They sell new & used books, along with gifts, crafts, stickers, stationery, local artisan goods, and more. My son loved the little kids area and he sat at the mini table flipping through children's books the whole time. I bought some cute gifts & cards for a few upcoming occasions that I'm excited about. This shop is LGBTQ-owned and they carry a wide variety of books and products that highlight queer & BIPOC stories. You can tell that this is a very inclusive "third space" in the community, hosting workshops & events that bring people together. They also accept used book donations -- I love me some secondhand finds. Highly recommend checking out this local gem if you're in the Melbourne area. Happy Pride Month!
