Sarapaan, Wellesley

In Thai, "sarapaan" means variety. This is fitting, since Sarapaan's two storefronts brim with a diverse spread of glittering beads and baubles, all waiting to be manipulated into eye-catching jewelry. Freshwater pearls, Swarovski crystals, and glass beads slide down jewelry wire during jewelry-making classes, which yield personalized pieces such as rings, bracelets, and extra-fancy dog collars. The shop also sells ready-to-wear handcrafted jewelry and custom designs for weddings and other special occasions.
