It's here!

I am happy to announce that we're officially launching this new personalized baby pendant on my website! To celebrate it, I'm offering a ONE lucky reader to win their own baby's profile pendant in sterling silver with a chain, worth $255. You can see all the prices on my website. To enter, simply leave me a comment {one entry per person, please} by this Friday and the winner will be announced on this Mother's day, May 9th. The randomly picked winner will then email me his/her own kid's picture to cadence@cadencelee.com to process the order {further details to be followed for the winner}. 

Here are some pictures of my happy clients who got their daughter's profiles made. The reaction I received when I hand delivered their pendants was truly unforgettable. They both got teary eyed. 

I love that I was able to make something very special to them. THIS is why I love what I do… 

Aleena used to be one of my good friends at work until she got engaged and decided to leave us to pursue her MBA in D.C. How selfish of her. ;P Before she left the company, she modeled for my new jewelry line. We literally locked ourselves in one of the small conference rooms during lunch and did the shoot. The light was absolutely horrible but she still looked gorgeous in the photos. Thank you so much beautiful girl and I'll see you at your wedding! In Africa! Congratulations again.

I've been working on revamping my jewelry website and I had my first photo shoot. Here are some of the previews.

A few new collections will be launching in the next few weeks, including a new baby line. Please be sure to check it out then. It was a pleasure working with you, Paola. Thanks for making my job so easy! 

This morning she beaded a necklace all by herself. I was impressed! Some of the holes in the beads were really small and there were even hard for me to do it. She did a great job!

Andrew's best friend and his wife came over in the evening to bring presents to the kids. It was a nice surprise and Chloe got to stay up a little late and had *drinks* with us.

Thank you uncle Danny and auntie Renna for wonderful gifts!!

Chloe and I are busy every other night making stuff, weather it’s a hair piece, a necklace or a sticker button. After dinner is our craft time together. She’s wearing her new felt ball necklace and a purple polka dot feather hair piece, our recent creations.

She did potty #2 last Thursday for the very first time. Her nanny left Chloe’s poop in the potty for me to see when I came home from work. Uhm, thanks Jen. I told Chloe, that I want to buy her a present. She didn’t pause for a second to tell me what she wanted. 
She wanted purple Crocs. Her best friend Tirra has them apparently. I cannot believe Chloe is already asking for things that her friends have. She is so into shoes and knows the different types of shoes, "…this is my tennis shoes, that’s my sandal, that’s my jellyshoes, my boots, flip flops… they’re not comfortable but I want to wear them!"  She got the flip flops as a present from Eura but since they are big on her, Chloe fell on her knees a few time at daycare. However, she keeps insisting on wearing them even though she tells me that they are uncomfortable.

Her nanny pointed out that Chloe is compromising fashion over comfort. ALREADY!?!? 

Every other night, Chloe and I do projects together before bed. These are from last week.

my Seana earrings and a matching necklace made with rough cut diamonds and green amethyst for a special dinner party tonight.

"Jennifer is So beautiful!" Chloe acclaimed.

After church, we decided to spend the afternoon in Sugar Loaf in upstate NY.

We had lunch at Barn Cider,

smelled flowers,

(I love the face Chloe makes when she’s smelling)

we then bought Chloe wings and she became a fairy,

and we found two rings that actually fit her fingers. 

We have been featured here. We had the pleasure of knowing Bentley Waters when we hired her to photograph Chloe’s first birthday in 2007. She’s a very lovely and talented person and we definitely want her back to shoot Shane’s first birthday for sure! Thank you for mentioning my website. We look forward to seeing you soon!
