Where This Came From
BONDED launched in 2019 around a simple idea: jewelry can mean something beyond fashion. It can mark a moment, tie people together, represent a relationship you want to carry with you. When entrepreneur Mindy Hamilton brought the brand to Las Vegas and California's Central Coast in 2022, she started building something bigger. After personally serving more than 10,000 guests across her studios, she acquired the national BONDED brand in 2025. Hamilton Hat Lounge came out of an equally personal story. Mindy grew up on a horse farm in Ohio competing in western events, rarely without a hat. Inspired by her grandmother's style and nicknamed "Minnie Pearl" as a kid, she eventually turned that lifelong love into a luxury hat-making experience that now operates alongside BONDED under one roof. In Las Vegas, the studio has a speakeasy feel: dark leather Chesterfield sofas, emerald green paneled walls, gold chandeliers, and a workspace that hums with feathers, ribbon, and the quiet flash of a welding torch. In Carmel, it's warmer and more coastal, set inside Carmel Square with light pouring through the windows and hats covering every wall.
