ABOUT

A NOTE FROM BONNIE

SO GRATEFUL YOU'RE HERE

Just wanted to let you know how much you mean to me and how absolutely grateful and humbled I am that you are here.

I am convinced that life by nature is very hard. It is challenging, sad, lonely, and often confusing. But it is also full of wonder, fun, play, and connection. This jewelry seeks to both honor the sorrow we experience and to also celebrate the joy. My biggest hope is that Hey June can be for you what she’s been for me — something you know you can always count on, good times or bad.

OUR JOURNEY

A LITTLE HEY JUNE HISTORY

2015

the beginnings

When I start this business in 2015 my daughter, June, is barely one. In a crumbling marriage and with a bleak financial outlook, I am desperate to find a way to cover the mortgage and diapers. I decide to take my life-long interest in jewelry and sell birthstone necklaces on Etsy. Working out of my townhome basement during late nights, nap times, and days off of teaching, the “business plan” is just to make enough to get to the next month.

2020

the middle

Somewhere along the line, I expand to more jewelry and amazing women start helping me. At first, I pay them in Big Macs and we work shifts from 10pm–2am. I am in shock at the orders coming in and the hustle is real!

2024

the now

Some 17 talented, smart, hardworking women now work at Hey June and thousands of you have created an incredibly supportive community of loyal customers. We've moved out of the basement and hit 200,000 orders this year. Your support of this small business means absolutely everything—you are an integral part of our journey!
