Silver Sparrow Beads

I've been here several times throughout the years and I've made a few purchases. I must say that Silver Sparrow Beads has a beautiful array of beads and many I haven't seen anywhere else. They also sell more than beads such as silk and leather ribbon, chain, handmade jewelry, tribal beads, ceramic beads, handmade bags and so much more. If you're looking for something very unique I'm sure you'll find it here. And everything seems to be priced fairly.Also the custom service here is great, every time I've always through the doors I'm immediately greeted and asked if I need help. I love this little beads shop, it's definitely one of the most rare and beautiful ones in the Old Colorado City. I give this little bead shop 2 thumbs way up and I recommend you check it out if you haven't yet!

This bead shop had absolutely incredible selection - it was like a treasure hunt browsing through their awesome jem, bone, and ceramic beads. I will say it was hard to keep track of the prices of the different beads I chose, but the end haul was worth it!

Customer Service does not exist in this store!! The Manager failed to tell myself and my friend that if we were interested in beads we were to put them in a box on the counter and list their prices on the sticky note. When I asked her a question she saw I had some beads in my hand and was rude to me that I did not know her procedure with the box. When paying for my beads, she rudely told me to put the beads in the baggie she handed me instead of her doing it herself. She did not say thank you for my purchase. Standing next to my friend while she checked out the Manager offered to put her on the mailing list and gave her 20% off and even put her items in a baggie and then in a sack! I guess my purchase didn't warrant appropriate Customer Service!! Well I will never give her shop my money again and I will tell my friends about no Customer Service at the Silver Sparrow!!!

This local business is the perfect place to add to your Colorado Springs bucket list! I took my little sister in here to look for some beads to make jewelry with and we ended up staying for over an hour! Michelle, the lady who owns the business, is the sweetest person you'll ever meet in your life & is willing to help you find exactly what you're looking for! You can make your own bracelets & necklaces, purchase ones that are already made, & find other very neat things like sage, roll on crystal fragrances, and any type of stone or crystal you're looking for! Michelle can string any crystal or bead she has for sale on wire & attach it to any type of chain or bracelet you want!! Not to mention, all the prices are very low and reasonable! I had the greatest experience here & would recommend this store to anyone with an interest in healing stones, jewelry, & good conversation!!!

I came in to see, if they restring a bead necklace. I received excellent service and the lovely woman that was working (sorry I forgot your name), was able to do it while I waited. It was fun to watch her work on the necklace and made me appreciate the intricate skills and patience needed to do it. While I waited, it was hard not admire the impressive bead collection. Love that they do classes here and create community in OCC!!

Very pretty items here, but quite pricey. Already thought it was kinda expensive when looking at the items, but then got home to realize I was charged for 2 extra items that I didn't even get for a total of $5! The cashier was not in a rush either considering I was the only one in the store at the time. Will not be returning.

This place is AWESOME. Their selection of beads, pendants, stones, and everything else they have is very expansive. There's items from all across the world! My wife and I were helped by Kate and she demonstrated such kindness and support for us throughout our time making necklaces. She helped us find the items we were looking for and helped us create the necklaces we wanted! On top of that they let all their local jewelers get 20% supplies here which is a great way to support the local community. Also here's a pic of the necklace I got! Seems like great value and quality! Cannot WAIT to come back!! :))

I came in to purchase beads and the manager did not even acknowledge me. More people came in after me and she welcomed them in. I walked around the shop hoping it was just an oversight but even when I was next to the register she still did not acknowledge me. I heard her tell the patrons after me she was the manager. I would have bought many things in this store but because of being treated so rudely I left without spending anything. I will share my experience with my bead loving community. A manager should be a role model in customer service. She was not.

I am so glad I found Michelle to rescue my mala prayer! She worked her magic and put an African bead to replace the original link head and the mala looks wonderful instantly, better yet, it only cost $2 dollars! Thanks Michelle!!!

Ive been here several times to buy necklace cording, beads, a shawl, get a necklace repaired. Always super helpful service. So glad they're surviving! Please visit, a realtor treat!
