No plan, no pattern — just a handful of beads, a strand of freshwater pearls, and an afternoon with nothing else to do. Strung Together grew out of that feeling, and we built the whole business around bottling it for other people.
[Founder name] started stringing beads the way most people start most hobbies — with no intention of it becoming anything. A mismatched collection of glass beads, a handful of pearls, and a gold clasp came together one afternoon into a necklace that had no business looking as good as it did. Mismatched shapes, mismatched colours, and somehow it worked.
Friends asked where it was from. When the answer was "I made it," the follow-up question was always the same: could they make one too?
Strung Together exists because making something with your hands, alongside people you actually like, is a genuinely good way to spend an afternoon — better than another round of pass-the-parcel, better than a generic party favour nobody keeps. Every kit is built to make that moment easy: real materials, clear instructions, and a video to fall back on if anyone gets stuck.
We use glass beads, freshwater pearls, and sterling silver and gold findings — not because a hens night or a baby shower demands fine jewellery, but because we didn't want to build a business around things people would throw away. A kit should end with something worth actually wearing.
Every kit is put together the same unhurried way that first necklace was — beads chosen and paired by hand, not machine-sorted into identical bags. [A line or two here about where you're based, how kits are assembled, or anything else true about your process — happy to help draft once you share the details.]
If you're planning something — a hens night, a milestone birthday, a baby shower — and you're not sure which kit fits, reach out. We're always happy to help you choose.
