There is something so nostalgic about Shell Beads. Wearing a piece of shell jewelry makes us think of our fondest memories: summers by the seaside, vacations, beautiful sunsets, and long, aimless walks along the ocean. If you are anything like us, you may even have gotten your jewelry-making start as a young child, looking for shells near the water so you could string them on your earliest creations! While your techniques, skills, and aesthetic have likely become more sophisticated, eye shell natural beads still capture some of that same early wonder for jewelry makers and for your customers.
At the Bead Traders, we always offer affordable beads, beading supplies and charms. That's because we buy beads in volume, and pass those savings on to you.
