The age thingy at the top of the page, that's just how long Talisman has been in business. I wish I was that age, that seems ages ago!

Naomi started Talisman Associates in 1976 right after the Viet Nam War. She started the company with $50 and bought her first beads retail. Our first product line was Liquid Silver Jewelry in American Indian style, sold mostly to beach shops. There is still a big bag of jewelers grade liquid silver in the depths of the safe! From there a bead store was opened and it progressed into two stores, then to wholesale & retail. Our show circuit was not started until Naomi's children were grown and in college. When Laura (her daughter) came back from college and started working with her, the business really took off. Today Talisman does about 120 shows a year and has representatives all over the country. A lot of our product line is imported direct. Naomi is now looking to retire (or at least cut way back on working). Her basic hobby is flea marketing or thrifting.

We are Woman Owned and Serving the Beading World for Over 31 Years!!!!!

Retail & Wholesale Strands: Pewter Beads & Findings; True Vintage German Glass Beads; Freshwater Pearls; Chinese Lamp Beads; Millefiore Beads (Chinese); Semi-Precious Gemstone Beads; Chinese Crystal Beads; Indian Lampwork Beads and More! Please Note: Our stock is always changing, so check back often (on both sites) or sign up for our newsletter. You can always change your mind later!
Who I'd like to meet:


READING IS FUNDAMENTAL ..... (my personal quote!) Hi! This is Teresa. I'm on the friend's list somewhere, LOL! I'm basically what the gals in the store call the "Web Mistress." I've been with Talisman for ???? ever! So, yes, I handle all the web stuff, here and at our store site.


We are looking for people interested in beading, "beadaholics," other crafty folks, and bead resellers in this internet crazy world (you can get lost out there!) Some of you may already be familiar with us ... Maybe you've seen us at a show, longtime customer, let us know.

So keep checking back (on both sites), as I will be adding new things and new friends!

*** I view all pages reqesting to be our friend, and if it is not appropriate/craft or bead/jewelry related, I apologize, but you will not be added (or send me a message why, because you might be into beads just not on myspace!). And if your profile is set to "private" and I can't view your page, you should send me a message so I can approve you!

FYI Friends: Keep sending your awsome comments and pics of your jewelry to our comments page. I will be checking this page as much as I can, so please be patient if you have a request!

Hello Miss.Teresa!

Spring is coming soon! How is everything with you bead goddess? I'm just beading away, constantly buying and photographing! I'm a fiend. ;)thanks for your compliment on my picture honey. It's me in my more me-ish state of being. Not glamour girl, besides I'm very casual a majority of the time, very very casual. I really enjoy your photos of yourself and your beautiful family! Take good care sweetie! Stay warm!

Huge hug!

Love,

Lys
