Welcome to the Isla Mujeres Women’s Beading Co-op, where creativity meets community, and every bead tells a story. This group of extraordinary artists crafts one-of-a-kind beaded jewelry, each piece a unique masterpiece woven together one bead at a time over many hours.

Step into their mid-island shop, and you’ll find a vibrant scene of women beading around a table, their hands weaving magic and smiles sharing joy. Each artist earns a percentage of the sale, with a portion going back into the cooperative for supplies.

Want to join the fun? Take a beading class at 10:30 every morning (except Sunday) and create your own bracelet or earrings. It’s a delightful experience, sprinkled with laughter, creativity, and even a dash of Spanish learning!

Have a custom design in mind? They’ll make it for you, infusing it with the island’s charm. Just make sure to visit early in your vacation to allow time for your piece to be crafted.

From occasional pop-up jewelry sales in NYC to an Amazon Wishlist to support the artisans, the Women’s Beading Co-op is more than a shop – it’s a celebration of art, community, and the vibrant spirit of Isla Mujeres. It’s a must-stop, a must-see, and a must-experience!
