POTOMAC BEAD COMPANY

THERE is a trend in my articles this month. It's a feeling of entering other worlds that exist behind the doors of shops on Asbury Avenue. The creative minds of Ocean City business owners never cease to amaze me. And this month, along with Alice in Wonderland-esque cafes, I entered the Beading World. It’s a name I made up, yes, but I find it suitable for Potomac Bead Company on the 900 block of Asbury. Inside the store hangs rows and rows of beads. Hundreds of different shapes, sizes, and colors in beautiful strands that glisten with the sunlight. It’s like Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory, but made of beads.
