StrummWear is more than jewelry... It represents a new category in accessories that we like to refer to as "music fashion." StrummWear creatively marries music and self-expressive fashion to feed a new iPod, Guitar Hero and American Idol generation.

StrummWear is a woman-owned business, controlled by mother and daughter, that involves the whole family dedicated to serving customers and spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ our Savior.

The StrummWear Story

StrummWear was founded in 2008 by Nicole Ballard, a 16 year-old high school sophomore. From an early age, Nicole's interests have centered around creativity and entrepreneurial adventures. From her childhood coffee stand for neighborhood commuters, artsy photography and handmade fashion accessories, Nicole has always pursued the American Dream through self-motivated innovation and creativity.

At the age of 16, Nicole unexpectedly met Jesus. This divine providence set in motion a miraculous chain of events that led to a family united in Christ, a nationwide business and an expanding ministry.

Just months after Nicole's salvation experience, in the fall of 2007, Nicole "borrowed" a guitar string and pick from her boyfriend with the simple intent of creating a personal keepsake. When she wore this primitive guitar string bracelet to school, friends all asked how much she would charge to make one for them!

Sensing a market in the making, Nicole relayed the experience to her father and together they began to imagine and explore the business possibilities.

After months of research, supplier negotiations, prototyping and design, StrummWear was born. In her first few weeks of business, Nicole signed over a dozen stores in the Southeastern U.S. and product demand quickly became an unbelievable blessing. Nicole’s line is now represented in hundreds of store across the U.S. and the whole family has since joined this fun and exciting adventure.

This is What We Do!

More importantly, StrummWear is a total family ministry. Through Nicole's business, our family is dedicated to reaching others with this life-changing testimony.

The message is simple and beautiful... Repent and believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of the one true living God and you will be saved. Amazing Grace... How sweet the sound!

The LORD will save me, and we will sing with stringed instruments all the days of our lives in the house of the LORD. - Isaiah 38:20

Every package that reaches customers' hands carries this Bible verse. The StrummWear logo and every guitar pick charm carries our unique Trinity icon that represents the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. StrummWear is more than a fashion business... It's a Christian ministry! A portion of all profits are donated to Christian ministries dedicated to spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ worldwide.
