​​​A World of Beads is open in Blue Ash!

A World of Beads has been a small business in the Cincinnati area for 28 years. Opening in Tri-County in 1992, the store relocated to Hyde Park in 2002. In 2018, the store moved to Over-the-Rhine, and opened in Blue Ash in November, 2020 (with free parking!). 

In addition to beads and findings, we sell rocks and minerals, offer beautiful local artisan one-of-a-kind handcrafted jewelry, custom designs, wedding jewelry, classes (to resume post-COVID-19), and jewelry repair services. 

These past many months have been challenging for everyone, and we hope that you are all safe and healthy amid the COVID-19 pandemic. We feel extremely fortunate to be able to welcome you back. As the state of this public health emergency changes from day to day, we will remain focused on keeping our employees and our customers safe, healthy, and informed. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
​

The Gem Bar is closed for demos, classes and all jewelry making for the time being. Bead trays and common areas will be disinfected prior to appointments. and hand sanitizer will be provided around the entire store.
