I wish I could help you but since I am in Germany I could only name you German stores...lol.
But I would think
Michaels http://www.michaels.com/art/online/home
Joann http://www.joann.com/
Even Wal-mart should have some good beads
Or you can try out the following links
http://www.justbeads.com/ (that is an auction site for just beads)
http://www.globalbeads.com/
http://www.eebeads.com/
http://beadsbymail.com/

Or take a look at the search result from Google..

http://www.google.com/search?num=100...=beads&spell=1

Hope that helped...a little

Hobby Lobby has great selections of all kinds of beads. If you don't have a store near you, check their website.

Sunshine Crafts usually has some really nice beads too.

And I've bought a lot off of eBay too, this is the one I usually get them from:

This place has a lot of natural stone beads too.

If there is a Ben Franklin Crafts near you, they have a very large assortment of beads in any and all styles and price ranges. I want to make some beaded ornaments too, just haven't gotten a start yet. In fact, no idea WHERE to start!

that's always my problem...I'm full of ideas but have no clue where to start. I did find some nice and inexpensive charms at WalMart...of all places! I bought the rings and some beads.. I just need to put it all together!
