Building Connection in 2025: Tula Blue’s Open House in Austin

Connection—it’s what makes life vibrant. At Tula Blue, we believe in fostering genuine relationships, whether it’s through our handcrafted jewelry, our adventurous spirit, or the community we build along the way. In 2025, we’re taking that mission to the next level by opening our Austin workshop every other Wednesday for Working Wednesdays, an open house event where you can experience the heart of Tula Blue in person.

Starting February 5th, from 10 AM to 6 PM, our Austin studio will be open to all. Pop in any time to see our makers in action, shop our latest collections at market prices, browse exclusive sales racks, and connect with fellow Tula Blue enthusiasts. Whether you’re a longtime fan or discovering us for the first time, we can’t wait to welcome you into our space. Because at Tula Blue, community and connection are everything.

Why Connection Matters More Than Ever in 2025

In a fast-moving digital world, real-life interactions have become more valuable than ever. We’re all looking for ways to unplug, to build deeper relationships, and to engage with the people and brands we love in a more personal way. That’s why we’re inviting you into our creative space—to see, feel, and experience the magic of Tula Blue firsthand.

When you step into our Austin workshop, you’re stepping into the heart of our brand. You’ll see our artisans hand-spinning our signature rope, setting stones with care, and crafting each piece with intention. You’ll get to ask questions, watch the creative process unfold, and truly connect with the people behind the jewelry you love.

Tula Blue got its start when our founder, Heather Stringer, co-founded the Padre Island Farmers' Market on North Padre Island in 2016. Our Coastal Bend Tula Blue community grew around that market, where we first began sharing our handmade jewelry and fostering relationships with like-minded adventurers. Now, here in Austin, we are hoping to build that same sense of community in our space—bringing people together to celebrate craftsmanship, connection, and creativity.

Why We’re Opening Our Doors

Tula Blue has always been more than just a jewelry brand. We’re a family. A movement. A lifestyle. A community of adventurers, ocean lovers, and free spirits who believe in connection. This year, we want to deepen those connections in a way that feels authentic and personal.

We know that shopping small and supporting handmade brands isn’t just about the product—it’s about the people behind it. We want you to see the hands that craft your jewelry, hear the stories behind each piece, and know that when you wear Tula Blue, you’re part of something bigger.

Working Wednesdays are our way of bringing people together. Whether you’re here to shop, to watch, to chat, or just to say hi, our doors are open, and we can’t wait to meet you.
