I consider myself to be a fairly artsy, craftsy person; drawing, painting, sewing, crocheting, collage-ing weaving and the like. Every time I pick up a new craft obsession I stock up on supplies, work feverishly to learn it and when I finally feel adept at it, drop it altogether and move on to something else. This has gone on for years, until pressed for space in my small bedroom/studio/craft room, I forcefully cut myself off from buying anymore supplies. That is until recently, I was shopping in South Norwalk and discovered the delightful little nook of a store, Beadworks. Which sells, you guessed it, jewelry making supplies and every type of bead you could possibly imagine. It was the beautiful beads I fell in love with, I chose a bead I liked and it all devolved from there. Fortunately Norwalk is a bit far for me to drive to on a whim, thus preventing any more impulse jewelry projects. However there bead shop in White Plains that I have been dying to check out and on Wednesday I finally did.
Beads of Westchester on Westchester Avenue in White Plains is a bright and airy shop. It is dangerously close to where I live, has a wonderfully varied selection and a terrifically helpful staff.
