BEACH BEADS BY THE SEA

A longtime maker’s collection.

Beach Beads By The Sea is the handmade jewelry shop of Lee Ann Smith Rutledge in Wilmington, North Carolina. Every listing starts with a love of color, natural material and a useful little detail.

What began on Etsy in 2010 has grown into a wide-ranging collection of beaded eyeglass chains, lanyards, bracelets and necklaces. There is a piece for work, a gift, a favorite pair of readers, or simply a color that makes an ordinary day feel more like yours.
