Bead Heaven...

 Gorgeous Beads in Spicy Orange, Coral, Burnt Orange...and on and on

The Potomac Bead Company is one of my favorite places to visit 
while on vacation in Ocean City, New Jersey.




Be prepared to be "wowed" when you walk in the door !
This is pure "eye candy" at every level. ;)




Have you ever wished for rain while at the beach ??

(I'll let you in on a secret...I pray for at least one rainy day, 
so that I can spend it getting lost in this store ;)



Mother of Pearl

My "wish list" grows with every few steps I take...




All of the walls are dripping with semi-precious stones, 
glass beads, crystals and more...




Every conceivable bead has a home here.
wood - bone - ivory




The front of the store is all glass.
The light floods this store and illuminates the beads.

~~ (Someone pinch me, I must be in a dream. lol) ~~





Beautiful Swarovski Crystals in all sizes...




After looking at glorious colors for some time,
my eyes rested on this wall of pearly pale shades.
champagne - nude - beige - cream

Resting, calming neutrals.





Pure Bead Nirvana ;)




Now, what to do with my new stash of beads ?
Out comes the needle and thread...
time to embellish !

Creatively stitching...
