That is such a coincidence. It must be an omen.

There aren't any bead shops near me so I'm a little jelous - but then again, maybe its not such a bad thing as I spend so much buying on the interweb. Imagine how much I'd spend if I could see the beads in the flesh! :o

Anyway - I'll give you a tip for when you go shopping. Only take the amount of money you really should spend (NOT WANT TO SPEND!) and leave your credit cards at home. ;)

I know! I thought it must be fete! :D hehe

Yes money had crossed my mind I will go with strict budget and cash only ;)

I haven't been to a bead shop in person before am very much looking forward to it, sure I will be able to empathise with my kids in the sweet shop on Fridays! lol

I went to one on carnaby st other wk....not sure if it's the same one but was in a little area with small boutique shops? There were alot of retro clothing/crafty ones. Not sure if it's the same but may be worth a look,was just past miss sixty/boots on the right?! I'm sorry i dont live in london but it was a great shop!!!!!

I will have a look see when I go ty x x It may be another shop as "buffys beads" seems to be off of carnaby street.

I know where miss sixty is (not as though I shops there though! ) theres a really sweet retro shop just past there too I loves me retro :D

I was hoping to go tomorrow but I am unwell atm so will have to wait and see.

Will come back and fill you all in!!

Heya Pepsi x x x

I went today and it was nice, I over spent a wee bit but, mainly cos i needed crimping pliers so that bumped it up :D

Hmm some lovely reasonably priced stuff, and some over priced beads! (but thats prolly me being tight ;) )

Worth the trip because I liked lots of stuff and so I know I can pop there and see what I am buying when I need it rather than second guessing online and waiting iyswim

I was a bit random today because I didn't know what to expect!

Findings where very nice and a bit pricey but I find that paramount if I manage to create something worthy of a decent finding :p
