I am excited to introduce you to a booming brand started by two young ladies that have style for miles and business savvy to boot.

I have hardly taken off my Winnie necklace and large horn since the summer.

Whitley Henderson and Harris Parker

What is your training?

We have no formal training – all of the skills and technique we use are self taught.

What inspires you and your designs?

Fashion and travel really inspire us and influences how I design particular pieces. But most of all my family really inspires me to do the best I can at all times and try my hardest at whatever I do.

What is your favorite piece?

Harris’s is the Skull + Tassel Necklace.

Whitley’s favorite piece is the extra long leather tassel.

How has the your area influenced your work?

The support we receive from the boutiques, family and friends, and customers who shop local have really influenced our work. Boho Beads would not be where it is without our great support!

What is your favorite restaurant in (your city)?

Harris- 42nd Street Oyster Bar

Whitley- Angus Barn

What is your favorite cocktail?

Whitley- Margarita

Harris- Not yet 21.

How do you balance personal life and work?

Balancing work and our personal life’s can be challenging, especially since we are both young and still in school. Work and school are very big priorities to the both of us, but we have realized how important it is to make time for ourselves and family. With the support of our friends and family, we make it work!

Dream trip?

Both: Morocco to buy for Boho!
