Benjamin Crafts - Perth, Western Australia
With shops in Perth and online, there is no other jewellery craft supplier who can deliver more, faster, and cheaper. Our online shop alone stocks more than 4000 items. From beads, findings, precious metals, chain plated, pendants, to silver clay, set stones, couture, seed beads, they are available online or in-stores. Jewellery making classes are also available, please visit the website for more information.
It was twenty years ago that Michael started "Armani Boyd" in a spare room of his home selling Swarovski Crystal to Wholesale Customers. In 1999 his son Benjamin was born which not only signaled a change in lifestyle for him, but also a change in business towards Retail and hence a new business name.
Today, we still supply Crystals to some of the original Customers but have also grown to sell internationally. Our focus is on Beads, Findings and anything else associated with the Fashion Jewellery Industry. We try to avoid plastic beads as much as possible and have a reputation for supplying quality products such as Swarovski & Beadalon.

Fresh Hope Patterns - New Product quilting patterns for a good cause
Fresh Hope
Fresh Hope Patterns is a unique concept instigated to aid in raising funds, not only to help in the daily running of Fresh Hope, but hopefully to contribute to its expansion. Due to the generosity of many people, Fresh Hope Patterns have become a reality. Nearly every part of the production has been achieved with voluntary help so that the majority of profits from the sale of each pattern go towards keeping the vision of Fresh Hope alive.
The public may purchase any pattern of their liking through one on the retail outlets listed in the Fresh Hope website (opens on another page).
