Our story.
Jennifer Licari is the sole owner + founder of The Bonded Bar Co. Growing up in Southern California she was exposed to an abundance of culture, fashion and design that fed her daily inspiration. If you know her, you know she loves her accessories, so breaking into this industry was like stepping into Cinderellas glass slipper. She now finds herself and her family nestled into a quieter space located in Georgia with a louder than life desire to create. After being a stay at home mom for 7 years and adjusting from a cross country move, she found herself craving to connect with and explore her new state. Enter: The Bonded Bar Co. She has poured her heart and soul into creating her company and more importantly into every person and piece that leaves her chair.
The most important faces behind The Bonded Bar Co. Jennifer's husband Daniel is her biggest cheerleader, support system and Bob the builder to her dreams. He creates her signs, organizes chain, helps setup and assists at events when he's not working on set in the Movie Industry. They share three beautiful children together who they could not be more proud of! Their oldest London (17) is in her senior year with big dreams and an eagerness to explore the world outside of Georgia and somewhere closer to the beach. Their son Liam (15) is a sports enthusiast, that kid can step onto any scene and tear it up. He keeps them busy with his schedule. Little Levi (9) is their youngest, something about that youngest child...he's following in his big brother's footsteps as a sports star while maintaining a very healthy side of salty to his sweet.
While the company name speaks to what we were founded on, “bonded” pieces of jewelry that tell your story, mark a memory, help you feel beautiful + make your day a little easier, the name has a much deeper meaning. After launching, Jennifer quickly realized that it is so much more than just jewelry. The process and setting created a space to share life stories, the happy, the sad, the heartaches, the exciting, the scary + everything in between. Those connections, hugs, laughs and sometimes tears that have been shared became moments that BONDED them together. She has traveled all over the US with her business, giving her the opportunity to meet so many people in all walks of life and has discovered that “we’re all bonded” together through our stories much more than we think. She found herself searching for ways to do so with people near AND far. Jennifer and her husband Daniel handcraft each piece with so much love + gratitude for the opportunity to be a small part of your story too.LIVE FAST, LOVE HARD + STAY BONDED.
