Over the years, we’ve been contacted by designers, families, and former bead shop owners who all share a similar story:

They’ve inherited a bead collection, closed a bead store, or uncovered boxes of jewelry-making supplies—and don’t know what to do next.

These collections often represent years of careful sourcing and creativity, but selling them can feel overwhelming. Sorting, pricing, photographing, listing, packing, shipping… it’s a full-time job.

That’s exactly why we created our Consignment Program at Continental Bead Suppliers.


Our Bead & Jewelry Supply Consignment Program

If you have unused bead inventory or jewelry-making supplies you’d like to sell, we offer a simple, professional way to turn those items into income—without the stress.

This program is ideal for:

  • Inherited bead or jewelry-making collections

  • Former bead shop owners with leftover inventory

  • Designers downsizing or exiting the business

  • Estates looking to responsibly liquidate supplies


How It Works

We handle everything from start to finish:

  • Evaluation & organization of your collection

  • Professional product listings on our established online store

  • Photography, pricing, and SEO optimization

  • Storage, customer service, packing, and shipping

  • Monthly sales reporting and payouts

You earn a percentage of each sale, and we take care of the rest.

No need to learn e-commerce. No need to deal with individual buyers. No need to manage inventory or returns.


Why Work With Continental Bead Suppliers?

We’ve been in the jewelry-making industry for over 20 years and already serve thousands of designers, bead stores, and makers worldwide. That means your items are instantly exposed to an audience actively searching for beads, findings, chains, and jewelry-making components.

Your collection doesn’t sit—it gets seen.

And just as importantly, we treat every collection with care and respect. Many of these items carry personal and creative history, and we understand that.


Not Sure What Your Collection Is Worth?

That’s perfectly okay.

If you’re unsure whether your inventory is a good fit, we’re happy to review it and give you honest feedback—no pressure and no obligation.

If you have an inherited bead collection, old bead shop inventory, or excess jewelry-making supplies you’d like to sell on consignment, we’d love to talk.
