the studio store

happy wednesday!
our big news is that we just opened our first retail store on saturday! we are calling it the studio store because some of our wholesale team also works in the space. we had a great opening day! i think the store will help me feel more in touch with our end customer and that will mean our collections will be better reflect what the retail customer wants from us.
it's very exciting and a lot of work! i couldn't have done it without the help of my husband, chuck, and our amazing wholesale team -- andrea, jessica, mary ellen and karin! our new retail sales associate, deb, is a fabulous addiiton. she's been wearing our jewelry for awhile and having her work with us feels like a natural progression.
i also just want to thank our amazing graphics team, jennifer and chelsea, our master craftsman, robert, and our dear friend, peter, who worked with us on the design of the store.
if you are in nyack, new york, or nearby -- come and see us in the store -- tuesday thru saturday from noon to 5, and sundays, noon to 5, between thanksgiving and christmas. we are featuring our entire collection, which has never been in one location before. there are also some cool one of a kind pieces and some special priced styles in the treasure chest!!
peace
