Big Changes at Beadaholique

Big Changes at Beadaholique

Our recent announcement about closing our store resulted in an outpouring of support from our customers and suppliers. Hearing how important Beadaholique is to you and the beading community lifted our spirits during this difficult time. We are so grateful to you.

Within days of closing, our founders Chris and Sarah found a buyer that was committed to keeping Beadaholique open and continuing our mission of being the world's most fun and engaging online resource for beading and jewelry supplies.

The new owners have many friends in the jewelry supply industry that will help us restock quickly and expand our selection. They also have wonderful partners with a high-tech warehouse and an order fulfillment team that specializes in jewelry supplies. Our store will soon provide everything you could want to make jewelry and your orders will ship even faster. We couldn't be more excited!

Of course, change is never easy, but progress is being made daily. Our new team includes some who have served you for over 10 years along with many new faces. We graciously ask for your patience in the coming weeks as we all work around the clock to rebuild Beadaholique.

We are thrilled that we will soon be able to provide you with even more options for your projects including new brands, new styles, and line expansions featuring more shapes, sizes, and colors than you can imagine. We will also continue supporting the beading community with our library of project tutorials, how-to videos, and 101 guides. In addition, your customer account, order history, wishlists, Beader's Rewards, and unused gift cards are here to stay.

If you have more questions, please see our updated FAQ page or contact our customer service team. We would also love to hear from you about what you have enjoyed most about Beadaholique and what new products or features you would like to see as we enter the next chapter. Please let us know in the comments below and thank you so much for sticking with us!

I was absolutely ecstatic when I visited your site today and saw that you were going to remain open. I love all your tutorials and your variety of supplies at a reasonable price. Good luck to you!

I was very happy to see that beadaholique will be staying open! They are the only place I can find the long elegant earring 25mm hooks! They are my favorite go to hooks for all my earrings that I make. I love all the tutorials on this site and have learned so much about beading. I’m glad I will be able to learn more here. Of course they always have a huge selection of beads. I only wish that I got my orders sooner here on the east coast. If the closeout sale helped them to be able to stay open then I’m glad my purchases helped. I certainly got some some good deals and good stuff I probably wouldn’t have otherwise. Again I’m so glad such a wonderful bead store is going to be able to continue to offer their great selection and expertise!

I’m very happy to hear that you are staying open. Eventhough I don’t buy from you a lot, I enjoy watching the tutorials. Good luck and success.

You made my day! I am so excited you will remain open! I love your products and all your inspiration! I have learned so much through you! Congratulations! Let’s keep beading together!

In the beginning, I was so sad that the website would be closing down because I do really like Kat, Julie, and the other designers. I felt bad for them. However, I’m sure someone had an inkling that you guys would be remaining open, as you would need time to prepare the new banner and graphics for the day after your company was supposed to be out of business. I spent SO much money on stuff I didn’t REALLY need but because of the great price I bought a ton of it (over $700!) This really sounds like a case of detrimental reliance.

I didn’t want to be suspicious at first, like some other commenters, but an item that didn’t ship in my last order (that shipped today) is in stock on the website.

As for whether or not I’ll shop here again, it depends on the prices and how unique the items are. Even at 40% off many items were not priced competitively. There are plenty of online bead stores that sell the same items for less.

This is such fantastic news! I absolutely love your beading supplies and am thrilled that Beadaholique is staying open. You have always provided me with great merchandise at great prices, not to mention you have superior customer service. Congrats!

Wow! Some people are so sure that you guys did this as a ploy. While I’m not sure, I think it certainly deserves more of an explanation. I am glad you guys are staying open as you provide a ton of resources and just plain convenience to source beading products. I know I can’t get this kind of price locally.
