ABOCA Beads & Jewelry

Awesome little bead shop. They have everything - both the cheaper and really nice options. They were also knowledgeable and even shared a different way to sew wrap bracelets that will save me a lot of time! Please go and support them - the world needs more bead shops.

A fantastic pair of ladies Renee and Stacey who will help you with whatever you’d like to create. My friend made a beautiful bracelet and I made some wonderful earrings. It was relaxing, a reasonable amount, and fun! On top of that - I lost one of my own personal earrings and when I realized it the ladies were coming out because they were closed. However, they looked and found it the next day and I had given my address & card info - they found it and sent it to me!! Now if that’s not fantastic customer service I don’t know what is :0)!!

One of the most amazing places in Damariscotta! Lovely store that you can easily spend hours in. Beautiful wide selection of everything in beads; and Judy and her staff are so helpful with selections, and making jewelry, and they are also so happy to help teach others do their own thing. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is such a fun and unique experience! I wondered in with my 4 year old after she broke the beautiful Maine seaglass bracelet I bought for her an hour earlier at a vendor. We were greeted as soon as we walked in. I asked if they could fix her bracelet as she was so upset. They instantly offered to fix it (at a cost, they were very upfront about this). Savannah helped us, and she was very sweet. My daughter picked out a necklace for us to build together (word of warning, never bead with a 4yo, unless you are mentally prepared!). I ended up doing it alone, while she bounced off my lap, with the beads and my concentration on overload. The other saleswoman -I don't know her name, but she was training Savannah, came to help. She guided me through the process to make it easier. It was such a nice time. I hope to make it back up to Maine, and when I do, this is on my list! So fun and different!! I should note; 1. We forgot the extra beads from our kit, and came back within the hour, after the had restocked it -no complaints, they retrieved the beads, plus some, 2. My daughter broke her charm (because of course!), and they did fix it, so THANK YOU!!

I absolutely love this jewelry/bead store! Judy is so creative and helpful. They have gorgeous pre-made jewelry and if you're the creative type the possibilities are endless. Judy even made me a custom bracelet right on the spot!

I love Aboca. The selection of beads is excellent (colors, materials, sizes), and certainly jewelry is available for purchase, but I like to make my own. There are classes, and the staff is very helpful when I have forgotten a technique. I love the creative process and Judy has created a warm, welcoming space.

An ABSOLUTELY MARVELOUS place to buy bracelets, necklaces, earrings and other beautifully designed or customized pieces. They have so many choices of semi precious stones and other natural stones. So worth the visit, and I'm not even a jewelry person!! Thanks to Judy for making my visit very memorable.

Lots of beauty here....and very knowledgeable staff!

Thanks for another great visit. Love my labradorite!

Great little bead store! Very friendly owner.

So fun to create one's own jewelry with professional guidance. High quality. Affordable.

Nice bead store. Didn't have what I was looking for but very nice selection

A bit pricey . This shop is mainly for one to pick out their colors & the staff create for them.
Minimal seed bead selection.
