Custom Jewelry






Last night, I was up late adding new pieces to my etsy website. All in all, I think I added about 30 new pieces that are absolutely beautiful. There is a mix of bridal and summer pieces that I believe to be everday classics. I still have quite a few new jewelry pieces to add, but that is because I am constantly coming up with new ideas. It is fun to get some custom pieces as well. I just did a few items for a friend that was getting married in Costa Rica. Her earrings turned out amazingly.

I had a client ask me this week to create some jewelry pieces for a custom bridesmaid dress in her shop. (Couture House Rentals, of Houston, Texas) I came up with the Khloris Collection. A beautiful bracelet and earring set that bring a delicate and classic look to the dress.

Let the Gator Tutus Growl



This summer has been breezing by so quickly that it is hard to imagine that another gator season is coming upon us so soon. I had the privilege to have some amazing girls model some of the upcoming items I will have available for this fall football season. Last year, I had the first annual gator tailgate party to help the gator fashionista's look their game day best. This year, I wanted to include a little something for all ages. I am working out the final details of the second annual gator tailgate party which will now be known as the TAILGATE TRADITIONS collection by Courtney Lee Designs. The new line of gator jewelry and hair accessories will be revealed August 29. And I will keep everyone posted about the date for the second annual TAILGATE TRADITIONS party.

I also want to thank Susan and Stuart of Powers Photography http://powersphotography.com/ for helping me with this project. They provided some amazing pictures of our little gator girls. They are also scheduling stadium portraits in October, so get your new gator jewelry and accessories for the family before you have those taken.

Anchor Boutique Opening












A Wonderful Fourth of July!!!!!!!
I hope that everyone had a wonderful fourth of July. While the fireworks were going off in St. Augustine this past weekend, Courtney Lee Designs was being featured as a one of the new designers at Anchor Boutique on St. George Street. There was a wonderful turnout and thankfully the rain stopped long enough to enjoy the event.
