Bright Beads

Bright Beads is located at 204 Princess Street. If you have ever been to this part of town, you know it is always a struggle to navigate through the crowds and the carts. Our shop is on the second floor of an old building. The stairs are narrow and a bit steep, but it keeps us moving. We have thousands of different beads in small jars and plastic containers. It is a lot of tiny things to keep track of, and sometimes my eyes get tired from looking at them all day. The room is quite small, so we have shelves going all the way up to the ceiling. Every now and then, a jar might break or spill, and we spend time picking up the little pieces from the floor. It is just part of the job. We don't have a big sign or anything flashy outside. Most people who come here have been buying from us for a long time. We know their names and what they usually look for. We drink a lot of tea while we work and listen to the noise of the street coming through the windows. It gets very hot in the summer months, but we just keep the windows open and the fans on high. We aren't trying to be the biggest shop around, just a reliable one for our regulars.
