Question where to get microbeads?
Is there a craft store that sells these or do I need to buy online?

I tried Michaels and craft warehouse. Does anyone know if Joann sells them? Would they be in the bead department?

TIA,
Shannon

Personally, I don't like microbeads - they go everywhere and are difficult to clean up, so I don't make a point to look for them. BUT I have seen them at Hobby Lobby when I was looking for something else - yes, they were in the back of the store in packages with the other beads.

I am guessing any place that sells beads (Michaels, AC Moore, Walmart, etc.) will carry these as well.

Good luck!

I got mine at a scrapbook convention. But I swear I saw them at Joann's in the beading section. They are in a tube.

Yes they do - in combo packs by color with seed and bugle beads on the other side. I think they were $9.95 for the pack though. Might be a little pricey if you only want the microbead portion. It is near the back of the catalog with the supplies.

check out penny wise.

they have lots of different colors and decent prices. They're usually very quick with shipping and Suzanne is a really nice person.

I've purchased them at Michael's. They are with embossing powders, etc., not with beads.
