About

Hi, I'm Natalie, the hands behind Hardesty Ridge.

For years I strung bracelets, necklaces, and prayer beads by hand here at home. Somewhere along the way I realized the part I loved most was the beads themselves. Sorting them, pairing them, learning where a stone came from and how people have used it for centuries. So Hardesty Ridge is now a supply shop, built for people who make things.

What you'll find here

Gemstone, glass, and Bodhi seed beads. Findings, cord, and the tools that make the work easier. And my curated bead mixes, put together by hand around a color, a mood, or an idea. Every listing gives you the real details: size, hole size, count, and whether a stone is natural, dyed, or treated. No guessing.

Who it's for

Whether you make jewelry for yourself, for gifts, or for your own customers, I pick supplies the way I'd want them picked for me. Good quality, honestly described, and worth building something with. If you sell what you make with them, even better.

Why Hardesty Ridge?

The name is home. It's the land where my family has built our life and where I learned that the best things are made slowly and with care. Every order is still packed by hand right here.

I still make a small collection of finished pieces too, using the same beads I sell. You'll find them under Made by Hardesty Ridge.

Rooted in meaning. Crafted with intention. Now go make something.
