About Pink Karat
What started as a fun bonding activity between a mom and her bonus daughter quickly turned into something much more. Kali, owner of The Pink Karat, originally bought the supplies and machine to create permanent jewelry with her daughter Autumn. After trying it themselves, they brought their setup to a local event—and just like that, things took off.
From linking bracelets at events to opening a small studio, their passion grew into what is now a full-fledged storefront inside West Ridge Mall. Formerly known as Linked by AEA, The Pink Karat is proud to be Topeka’s first and only experience boutique.
Today, we offer not just one-of-a-kind shopping, but interactive experiences like our Trucker Hat Bar, T-Shirt Bar, Charm Bar, and more. And of course, we still link the best permanent jewelry in Topeka!
At the heart of everything we do is connection. Whether you’re treating yourself or enjoying a girls’ day out, our goal is for you to leave with more than just something cute—we want you to leave with a memory.
