My journey with Hiddles began in 2009 when I was working in a uniform store with plans of going to nursing school. To earn some extra money, I started making beaded stethoscope charms, lanyards, and keychains to sell. I have always had a passion for making things, and I was happy to find a hobby that I enjoyed so much. I was having so much fun with my new hobby that I began dreaming of one day being able to turn it into a real business.
Later on, I thought it would be fun to make my own badge reels after seeing the high demand for them. It took me some time, but by 2012 I made my first set of badge reels and showed them to the owner of the store I worked in. He loved them and his customers did too!
By now, I had decided that starting a business was a better plan for me and I was fortunate to be able to start selling my badge reels to a few retail locations. I named my company Hiddles because that was my nickname growing up and it just seemed like a perfect fit.
Hiddles can now be found in over 80 retail locations across the USA and in our online shop. Our button badge reels are still made by me at our workshop in sunny Tucson, AZ and we have recently added other types of badge reels to the mix as well as other fun accessories.
Thank you to everyone who has supported Hiddles, it means the world to me!
I have been living my dream growing this company and I hope my products bring a little joy into your life.
Sincerely,
Heidi
