I just love Bead Paradise. It's almost an hour drive for me, so I only get there once or twice a year, but it's always worth the trip.
First I shop in front where they have a great selection of clothing for women, including brands I love, like Cut Loose and Sun Kim. Then I move toward the back of the store to stock up on everything from jewelry findings to cabachons, tools, and beads.
If you love to make jewelry, give yourself ample time to peruse the cases and find what you like. I always spend at least an hour. They have expensive, collectible rare beads as well as affordable simple beads.
And Oberlin is a great college town. Wish I lived closer!

We were in Oberlin exploring and stopped into this bead shoppe. It is differently more than a bead shop. It has clothing, jewelry, new age things, and of course beads and lots of beads. I had been looking for smudging kits or at least the sage bundles for a while. We walked in and stumbled across what I was looking for plus lots of other items. Great shop with really helpful and nice employees.

As a man, I usually shop there with my wife. The experience makes her happy and therefore makes me happy. I have bought gift certificates for my daughter, my wife and a female friend of ours. I have never been disappointed. Great Service! Great Women's Clothes! Great Satisfaction!

Okay to be honest this was not my thing but we were checking out the town so we stopped in. Looked extremely well stocked and everyone inside seemed enthused and happy to be there.

Clothing in the front and beads in the back. They were really helpful and happy. Very patient when I change my mind a few times getting things to make my bracelets. A lot of selection and reasonable prices!

Having been in similar stores that sell interesting clothing in various states, NONE has even come close to Bead Paradise in terms of variety. The loose bead collection offers an opportunity to design exactly what you need for yourself or a gift. The collection of jewelry, designed by a variety of artists, is unique Add to this so many interesting cool items throughout the store--its an experience!

Sophisticated, global, beautiful merchandise. Artists make one of a kind jewelry for sale. Authentic unusual beads and supplies galore to make your own. Upstairs is a treasure, too, with incense, candles, small international wares. A delightful unique place!

This store has a large array of beads of every size and color. There are also beautiful clothes, dresses, skirts, blouses, pants and more. If you want body lotions, powders and scents just peruse what this store has, you will be pleasantly surprised.

Great clothing and accessories not found in most stores or shops, and limited sizes of each item so you won't see the same thing all over the place. Friendly staff.

It's unusual to find a store like this in a small town anymore. In addition to carrying beautiful and unusual clothing for women (brands like Eileen Fisher, Cut Loose, etc.), Bead Paradise has, as the name suggests, beads of all kinds and has workshops showing people how to make their own jewelry. They also sell ready made unique pieces of jewelry. Upstairs are sale racks and various smaller items from all around the world. A real treasure!
