Hi! I'm Austin

I’m the founder and lead designer of Stringables. I’m also in charge of marketing (not my expertise), site-design (not my expertise), sales (my expertise), production (a little expertise there), shipping, sourcing, packaging… you get the idea.

That's my wife, Elisabeth. She is my main collaborator and my inspiration. She's also amazing at taking photos and posting them on our Instagram.

Founded in 2020

Like a lot of people, I found myself stuck at home during the Great Quarantine of 2020, desperately needing something to occupy my hands and my mind. That’s when the idea for Stringables was born. As a creatively wired (and ADHD-wired) person with a love for all things ropes, knots, and yarns, I’d dabbled in string art before—you know, the kind where you hammer a million nails into a board and then wrangle the yarn like it’s a tiny, colorful rodeo. I’d also done a bit of cross-stitching as a kid (thanks, childhood nostalgia), and one day, the two worlds collided.
The result? Stringables: a creative outlet that’s part art, part therapy, and 100% me.

Our Values

  • LGBTQIA+

    We believe that love is love, full stop! Who you love is your business and your business alone. We also believe our world needs more love in it, not less, so any attempt to suppress it is just plain stupid!

    Get your Rainbow Flag Heart here. 

  • BLM

    We believe that black lives matter, wholeheartedly! A society that systemically favors any race (or gender) over another is an unjust one. We have, are, and forever will be advocating for racial, gender, and orientation equality.

  • Vote!

    We absolutely acknowledge that our democracy in America is not perfect, in fact, it's far from perfect. However, an imperfect democracy is vastly better than the alternatives. So we encourage everyone to VOTE in every election. Because not voting today, could lead to not being allowed to vote ever again.
