Sights and Sounds of Beadfest Philadelphia

Hard to believe that yet another Beadfest has come and gone! This year's Beadfest Philly was so much fun - From the people and the vibe to the gorgeous finds and creative inspiration, no doubt this summer's Beadfest was entirely epic.

Read on for a little tour of this year's show. From pack-up to show-down, we took photos and videos to reminisce on this year's fun, and to let those who couldn't make it in on the action. Have a look!


All stacked up and ready to go! An artillery of concealed beads ;)

Beadfest here we come!! In the big bad cargo van getting ready to drive to Oaks, PA

And it begins...setup that is! Day before setup is always the longest - but always super well worth it!!

Done!! The stage is set for an amazing Beadfest. Thanks much to my family for all the help, prep and setup!!

Single Beads in white and silver (along with our lucky SPYDERR!)

Shopping away! Customers enjoying the super colorful JJB booth. Did you see our booth at this year's BF?

Sensory Overload!!! Unique Beads and Mixes and Strands...OH MY!

Brand New! JJB Chain. The most beautiful glass beads spaced between gorgeous links of chain. All metals are lead-free, nickle-free and cadmium-free, and are non-tarnishing as well. Chain can be shopped here: http://www.jessejamesbeads.com/chain-reaction.html
