   We have a store here in Pequot lakes, MN called Weise Clothing but I 
have yet to see any clothing there.  They have stuff that I've seen nowhere 
else.  The part of the store that we are concerned stocks beads of many 
shapes, sizes, colors, made of various materials and findings (stuff to make 
jewelry).  Might one call it a "hobby shop"?  If we didn't have that store, 
I would Goggle "plastic beads for crafts."
