Carousel Beads is a full-service Bead Store nestled in the heart of Historic Old New Castle, Delaware. Our goal is to provide a level of customer service second to none. As the sign over the door says, "Enter as strangers, leave as friends."

We offer a full line of beads and supplies including: Swarovski crystals, Czech glass, lampwork, wood, nut, shell beads, seed beads, pearls, semi-precious, artisan beads, and more!

Finished pieces are available in the shop and we specialize in creating custom designs to complement that special outfit. Beaders are always welcome to sit in our classroom and create.

While in Old New Castle, be sure to visit our many museums, restaurants, shops, and historic landmarks. In nice weather, bring a picnic lunch and enjoy a gorgeous view of the Delaware River from Battery Park.
