Assembled in New Orleans using materials that are made in the USA
We live here, so we want to have the biggest impact on the local economy as we possibly can. We hire local folks to assemble our beads, and provide a decent wage. The beads we use are made in the USA. While we occasionally use imported pendants and findings, we are +95% made in the USA.
We use NO toxic materials, paints or dyes
Our beads are made with virgin polystyrene, the same materials used to produce food-safe containers and kids’ toys. Our string is typically a common polyester white string. When needed, we use a very safe, vinyl hot glue.
100% recyclable and reusable
Just like water bottles and butter tubs, our beads can be recycled, but what fun is that? Each necklace we make contains 120 beads which is enough to do a WIDE range of craft projects, or hair styles, or 4 bracelets, or key chains, etc, etc, etc. There’s no end to the fun things to do with our beads!
Reasonably priced
We try to keep our pricing between the bulk throw beads and the overly marked up, hand strung imports. To remain competitive, we make sure our costs are kept as low as possible while keeping true to our “Made in New Orleans” mantra. We order in bulk from our suppliers and have streamlined our assembly process, thus keeping our per necklace labor costs low. Because we can make so many, we can still provide a decent wage to the local folks working for us.
Customizable design
We currently have over 50 colors of beads in opaque, translucent, sparkly, pearl, shiny, or flat. We can match any theme for a rider, individual float, or entire Krewe. If we don’t have what you’re after, we can also color match just like getting paints mixed at the hardware store (minimums apply). For pendants, we can use our stock, laser engraved, custom design, or help find just the perfect item for your need.
Last, but certainly not least, they had to be FUN!!!
We ride in parades and throw a BUNCH of our own beads. The one thing we always notice is that our beads don’t go straight into the take home bag. Nope, they went around the neck and were showed off to others. There’s no better compliment to us than to watch a child or grandparent light up when they catch something special.
