I opened The Sanibel Bead Shop in 2005 with the simple goal of providing vacationers a convenient place to shop for jewelry making items. Over the years, The Sanibel Bead Shop has evolved into more than a convenient stop ... Offering unique merchandise, friendly service, and a beautiful store setting which delights all the senses, the store has become a must-stop destination for lovers of this craft. I could not have accomplished this without your loyal patronage and I truly thank you!   ~Lily Rose~
