In 2024, we will be closed May 27th, July 2nd - 7th, September 2nd, November 28th-30th, December 24th - 29th
Our storefront is open and we are offering classes and birthday parties.
Our storefront is open on Saturdays, so we no longer ship on Wednesdays in order to keep our workweek to a 5 day maximum. As always we work hard to ship as quickly as possible after we receive your order.
The Museum of Beadwork opened its doors in August of 2023. Caravan Beads is delighted to help support this registered 501c3 Nonprofit organization, which operates entirely from donations, ticket sales, and small grants.
When the world shifted because of COVID-19, we knew that our top priority was to keep shipping orders to our customers in the safest possible way. The safety of our staff is our top priority because if one person becomes sick, we may need to shut down our entire office.
We are doing our best to ship as quickly as possible. Please be understanding, and allow us to ship efficiently without adding to or changing your order, which will cause additional delays. The shipping companies are also overloaded so your order may be additionally delayed in transit.
We ship Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. This small and dedicated team is working very, very hard to fill a huge volume of orders. We require a minimum order of $25 to keep our order volume manageable. Please know that we love you all very much, and we apologize for the difficulty this causes.
We understand that the pandemic is affecting different areas of the world and people in different ways. We are a family-owned business, and the safety of our loved-ones is what we are determined to preserve.
We also lost our beloved grandmother Betty to the coronavirus on May 17th. We hope that wherever you live, you will raise your mug of coffee or a vodka tonic in her memory.
