Default Puerto Vallarta - Beads?

I am posting this question seperate from my regular questions because it is pretty specific...

Are there any unique beads to be found in Puerto Vallarta? I make handcrafted jewelry and I am always on the lookout for special & unique items. Are there any can't miss places that I need to visit for beads?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Default Beads

The best place in the world for finding that perfect bead
is the Tucson, AZ Gem and Mineral Show in Feb. It lasts for two weeks and
LOTS of people from all over the world are there selling and buying.
I bet you can find it there!!

Dawn, go to Basilio Badillo in SouthSide and walk east, away from beach, near la Fonda across from Fajita Republic, right side. Very nice new modern store there you absolutely must go to...La Piedra. Walk a bit farther and on right again is fine jewelry store called Viva...ask for either Juliana or Brenda and say Gary sent you.
