Gingercatbeads actually started when I was looking for a hobby during the summer of 2010 and I came across some pendants I liked in a craft shop. Thinking I could have a go at hanging them onto chains to make necklaces for myself I quickly became hooked and began making pieces for friends and family. 
I then started selling online with my one-off pieces and that quickly got the ball rolling. 

After a short time of jewellery making myself I realised I had accumulated more bead supplies than I could possibly use myself, so put some up for sale on eBay and that was where my first shop started! 

Since then we have sold our jewellery and supplies on eBay, Folksy and more recently Etsy - but have now began building this website to have everything in one place for an easy shopping experience. 

Late on in 2018, we also branched out into selling stationary supplies and this is something we are hoping to grow and expand into other catagories too - the main focus being stationary and novelty gifts & accessories! 

We hope you enjoy browsing our new website and we hope you find what you are looking for! Please come join us on our social media pages (Instagram & Facebook) - we would love to see your creations!
