PROMOTING CREATIVITY, HEALING & CULTURAL PRESERVATION
Balebe is lifestyle brand committed to preserving the art and practice of beading to promote creativity, healing and community building.
We believe that beading is a sacred practice and it is elevated when shared among others, especially women. Our virtual and in-person events provide a space and opportunity for creating, healing and laughter. Our experience and research has taught us that our existence is interdependent. We cultivate space for shared healing and creativity.
Bahati Benjamin, Founder & Principal Designer
Bahati was introduced to beading as a child at NCDC (New Concept Development Center) in Chicago, IL. She has been creating waistbeads and beaded handcrafted jewelry since 1999.
Many of our in-house signature designs are mathematically inspired and feature symmetrical patterns as well as bold color designs. Our approach to beading involves color therapy, mathematical patterns to align with intention setting and artistic expression.
