Question:
I am going to Germany in December. I was wondering if anyone
knows about bead stores there.
Answer:
-The only bead shops I know of is in Kaufbeuren-Neugablonz. I haven't been in
Germany for 3 years and when I was there I did not find many bead shops. In Kaufbeuren there are several larger businesses selling beads and I found lots
of old buttons in the cellar of one of them. They sold them by the kilo and I
love them. Any more info would be appreciated because my next trip I hope to
find many more!..........
-I would also like to know where people buy strands of German glass
beads. Does anyone even know which region the vintage German beads
come from? At bead shows there are people with piles of them. My
boyfriend is German and will travel there for Xmas. He, of course,
has no clue as to where to find these beads. However, he is willing
to look if given some leads.
