Kuebiko

An accessory and apparel brand by Brooke Watanabe based in Richmond, Virginia which started at the peak of the pandemic in 2020 with seed beads and stretch cord on her living room floor. What was meant to be a fun hobby from YouTube tutorials, slowly became her full time job. Brooke uses high quality materials and sources pre-existing, vintage beads from around the globe in order to upcycle pre-loved items that deserve another lifetime. Brooke is also a fine artist, so all of the graphics and illustrations for the brand including stickers, logos, the business cards, packaging, and more are hers. All of the decals and stickers are eco friendly, too!

Brooke's goal with the jewelry is to remind you of the past through nostalgic imagery. Almost every aspect of Brooke's interests come from 90s and 2000s inspiration. She incorporates bright colors and funky pieces emulating the styles she grew up with.
