Make your crafting dreams come true with today's Groupon: for $20, you get $40 worth of beads, supplies, ready-made jewellery, and classes at Bead Diva on Durham Street. A vast array of beads awaits would-be bedazzlers at Bead Diva, including Czech glass, Swarovski crystals, and semi-precious stones.

Reviews

Northern Life and the Sudbury Star featured Bead Diva:

• Located at 21 Durham St, Bead Diva has hundreds of beads in all shapes, sizes and colours. Specialty beads include Swarovski crystals, gemstones, varieties of glass, as well as the tools necessary to create a personal jewelery masterpiece. – Judi Koski, Northern Life
• For a bead lover, the store provides the proverbial "kid in a candy store" scenario. There are bowls of loose gemstones such as agate, moukaite, lava, snowflake obsidian, angelite and turquoise; bowls of loose lampwork beads; and bowls of loose glass beads such as table cut brown glass, fancy black glass and matte light blue glass. – Harold Carmichael, Sudbury Star
