Where to Buy the Beans!

Jessie Beans Accessories are now available in 3 fabulous Seattle Locations!  

  Last weekend I met with the wonderful Rachel Karlin - owner of Ola Salon in West Seattle. She saw the GIRL Seattle booth at the Fremont Fair and loved our items so much she decided to carry a selection of them in the Salon! Her favorite items were the Jessie Beans Hand-Set Vintage Rhinestone Brooch's - so Rachel picked an excellent selection of them to sell in Ola! She also has my new crystal bobby pins and some skinny headbands for summer in stock!

  For a wonderful summer afternoon in West Seattle I recommend a spa treatment at Ola,  then walking over to the wonderfully whimsical Luna Park Cafe' for lunch!  After food and pampering a short trip under the West Seattle Bridge will take to you Alki Beach for a gorgeous day in the sun!

  Another great store in the Seattle Area is Ventures - currently located on 1st and Occidental, but will be moving to Pike Place Market in September! Ventures is a non-profit retail store that only sells items from local entrepreneurs - they are an awesome place to support and shop from!

  Ventures was also restocked with over 100 new items from Jessie Beans last week! They have the biggest selection of wide headbands of any store that carries Jessie Beans. They also have a lot of skinny headbands, stretchy headbands and some other Jessie Beans treasures!

  The boutique with the largest variety of Beans is the Pretty Parlor on Capitol Hill. This is the only store that carries my feather fascinators, in addition to every headband style I make and lots of clips, bobby pins, cuffs and combs! If you are looking for a collection similar to what you see me selling at street fairs - the Pretty Parlor is the place to go! When your there be sure to give a good snuggle to Vincent, the shop kitty!

The Pretty Parlor!

I will be restocking The Pretty Parlor today with some lovely new beans!

It is the most whimsical boutique in all of Seattle and one of the FEW places you can find Men's Vintage clothing and accessories (and of course tons of Women's items).

If you're a fan or rhinestones, ruffles, sparkles, satin, lace, glamour, vintage or indie designers (or Jessie Beans Accessories) - this is the shop for you!

And don't forget the Fremont Fair is this weekend!

Come to the underground garage next to PCC to hear excellent music selections from DJ Jessie Beans (me!), shop the full collection of Jessie Beans Hair Accessories and Girl Seattle Fashion Jewelry as well as other great local artists!
