Introducing The BookWorm in Bellevue, Iowa! <\/strong><\/p>\n

The BookWorm Bookstore & More was established in 1998, when owner, Sheila Hargrave packed up all her worldly possessions, took her Boston Terriers and left Chicago to move to Bellevue, Iowa. Now, 20 years later, The BookWorm is a thriving local business, with many customers who have walked through her doors as strangers but have left as friends.<\/p>\n

Many people think of Dune Jewelry as just beach or coastal jewelry. They don\u2019t necessarily expect to find a Dune Jewelry Premium Retailer in an inland Iowa town of fewer than 2200 people, surrounded by cornfields! Well, think again!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Dune Jewelry creates experiential jewelry, and Sheila Hargrave and her team have created a destination. Customers from miles around capture their memories and experiences via The BookWorm\u2019s custom collection of Dune Jewelry!\u00a0 Handmade using Mississippi River Sand from Bellevue, Crushed Shells from the historic Bellevue Button Factory, or even crushed corn kernels from the local cornfields. The BookWorm has a beautifully curated collection of Dune that is sure to wow!<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cThe best part about selling Dune is the look on the customer\u2019s face when you hand them their special piece of jewelry. \u00a0You know in that moment that both their heart and mine are happy!!\u201d<\/p>\n
