where to find beads, crystals and materials for making jewellery in singapore?

Answer 1

Bead Hub has classes for making jewellry as well as the materials.

For just materials, you might want to visit People's Park Centre at Chinatown. There's a store next to the BATA shop that sells alot of beads at Level 1. There is another one on the 2nd floor, most prominently seen if you are walking across the overhead bridge from Chinatown Point to People's Park Centre.

Other places you can look for is at Arab street. But I recommend that you visit those at Chinatown as they have more choices as well as pre-packed beads for your creation.

Here's a list of the quite well-known shops. Hope it'll be of more help.

Answer 2

Crystals For Jewellery Making

Answer 3

You can buy them from Far East Plaza, its somewhere near Long John Silver. You can also get them from Chinatown, People's Park Centre, at Mix and Match and also from two other shops located there. They have all the accessories and they specialize in glass beads. You can find real crystals in the vicinity of Chinatown, but I'm not quite sure where. Hope I was of some help and happy jewellery making.

Answer 4

My favourite shop is the second floor of People's Park Complex, opposite Chinatown Point. It's called Mix and Match. They have a good selection, for a reasonable price. You can also try Golden Dragon (also second floor, but near the overhead bridge towards Chinatown Point).

Before I forget, there's also a more upmarket shop at the basement of the Heeren. They sell semi-precious gemstones and also nice beads. They're more expensive though, but you might find stuff you can't find in Chinatown there.

Answer 5

Alternately is through online shopping, you can find a Power Seller at Yahoo auction, ID sandraino2002.

Answer 6
