We've had a busy month here at Eureka! Beads, with some pretty awesome short super specials. Make sure to follow us on facebook, as we mention our short sales and upcoming classes (in amongst photos of the dogs!). This month we have some lovely new colourful scarves (and a special to go along with them!) as well as new beads and more. As the weather starts to cool down, it seems the perfect time to stock up on our colourful lightweight scarves! This month, if you purchase a soft scarf, we'll throw in a scarf pendant for free! That's $12 value for only $5.
Special is available online and instore, until the 31st May (excludes looped scarves).

This month I've been busy uploading some more of our Chinese bugle beads and our Indian glass beads. Bugle beads are growing in popularity as an embellishment for dance costumes, particularly our 2 cut bugles, which give off an extra shimmer - great for the stage!
Our Indian glass beads are fabulous value at $1 per 25g bag, and useful as fillers for the smaller beads and even as features for the larger foil beads.
Some of our favourites are pictured below:
