Are there any beads shops in, or near Auburn, Alabama. My friend and neighbour in New Zealand is going there to attend her daughter's wedding to an Auburn boy. I have made Sarah's wedding bouquet of white and gold centered French Beaded flowers and Kay , her Mum wants to bead shop for me. She will not have much time or transport but we are ever hopeful that there will be a shop nearby. Any help would be appreciated as beads are expensive here. Jan

I hope I am not annoying anyone reposting in the form of a question in the heading. I am beginning to think that there are no bead shops there but have tried googling the town for info and did not find any. Thank you in advance. Jan

From what I can find out, there are two craft shops in Auburn, AL, and both are listed in the Auburn phone book as having beads:
Anders Book Stores Inc (334) 821-1137
212 W Magnolia Av Auburn, AL Johnston And Malone Book Store (334) 887-7007 115 S College St Auburn, ALI can't vouch for either of these places, because I live thousands of miles away, and I've never been to Alabama. There doesn't seem to be anything at all in nearby towns - even Michael's and Hobby Lobby (which stink) are over
30 miles from the center of Auburn.Hope this helps, at least a little,

Thank you Sooz and Kathy for your replies. Sooz, your original reply did not get through. Yesterday, when I went to download there was nothing for rec.crafts. beads and 8 hours later there were 12 items, usually, there are over 100 each time I download. I don't know if this was just a local problem but I love reading this group night and morning. I chuckle over some comments, send up a few prayers and good wishes and indulge in a lot of eye candy plus learn lots. Kathy, I was interested that both shops you mentioned are also book shops. Two of my favourite shops together. Apologies to anyone else who replied. I thought it was not like this group who are usually very helpful.Maybe the replies are out there in cyberspace. Cheers, Jan
I'll try it again, Jan. :-)
