What You're Saying:
"I love ordering through auntiesbeads.com! I live in a town where the closest thing to a bead store (hobby lobby) is
30 minutes away and the quality and service aren't up to par. With your website I can get most everything I need in
a very short period of time and with anything that isn't available I can sign up for emails to let me know when they
become available. Thank you for being my go-to bead supplier!"
- Michelle via mobile
I so much appreciate the fast service and the fast shipping when I order from Aunties's Beads! Absolutely love
Beader's Advantage!
- Shelby from Oregon
I love Auntie's Beads! I feel as though I am doing business with friends; I know you care about what we think & that
is so important to me! Great service, quick delivery & most of all, I LOVE Karla Kam! Karla is great and the videos
are so clear and helpful! Love "our" bead chat group! Great support and encouragement! You're the best!
- Patsy from Arizona
Being rather new to jewelry making I am eager to learn. Auntie's Beads not only has the supplies I will need but
also the knowledge to help. My Beader's Advantage Membership will allow me to explore this new world without
going broke!!!
- Pam from Huron, Ohio
Good products at a good price...beads always "as advertised" and arrive on time.
- Richard from Tyler, Texas
I had never ordered from Auntie's Beads until Last Dec. 2011. I placed an order, and within a couple of days, it was
in my mailbox. WOW!! that is Customer Service. I had ordered from other companies, and my wait time was 5-7
days. I will be placing all my orders from Auntie's Beads.
- Teri from Indianapolis
I am a fairly new beader. I would like to commend you all on your superior service. You have all the items that I need
at a great price and they are always correct when they arrive. My products arrive pretty quickly. Just awesome!

Turquoise Blowout Sale!

Be sure you don’t miss out on our Turquoise Blowout Sale accessed from the Auntie’s Beads home page. Sale will begin Thursday, May 27th and last until Sunday, May 30th. Be the first in line by signing up for the Auntie’s Beads Newsletter!

As we transition from Spring to Summer, we are all about the hot turquoise here at Auntie’s Beads! We will feature the classic blues and greens, as well as some really fun bright reds and fuchsias in gorgeous-girly shapes like flowers, hearts and crosses in our Thursday, May 27th promotion. We will also be including a collection of turquoise composite pieces, which feature stripe-like swirls of complimentary colors. These warm, discounted products will make the perfect counterparts to your summer sundresses, sandals and suntans!
I was inspired by the gorgeous mint colored turquoise rounds to make the Sweet Sorbet Bracelet. The colors remind me of a favorite Easter dress I had as a little girl. Turquoise is very versatile for jewelry making. Classic greenish-blue turquoise pieces look great with silver or copper metals, and compliment coral perfectly. Funky dyed turquoise in brighter shades lend themselves to a little more creativity, as shown in this bracelet. We would love to hear comments about what you all are doing with your turquoise!
Interesting Turquoise Facts:
*The chemical formula for turquoise is CuAl6(PO4)4(OH)8·4H2O
*Southwestern areas of the United States (Arizona, California, Colorado, New Mexico and Nevada) contribute major amounts of the world’s supply of turquoise
*The Egyptians were the first to imitate turquoise
*Most fine, natural turquoise is found in thin seams, so it is generally glued to another surface or “backed” in order to increase its durability
*The word “turquoise” comes from the French word for “Turkish”
*Turquoise was worn by ancient Persians to ward off unnatural death; it was thought that if the stone turned color, doom was impending!
