There's a new jeweler in town!

Okay Ladies... this is a good one. I just discovered the most amazing new jewelry maker based in Charlotte, NC. JOULES DESIGNS BY JULIE PAGE SMITH Sold exclusively at Cottage Chic. Stones are semi-precious and the gold is 14 karat gold-filled. Necklaces (such as the pink Chalcedony, ruby, tourmaline and freshwater pearl) are $64 for 3 stones and one pearl, can add additional stones for $12 each. And just for that added touch of pizazz, each necklace is designed around and hung from vintage playing cards. What fun! I also heard a rumor that she makes earrings and can custom design based on each client's desires. What better way to really tell your Bridesmaids how much you appreciate them?
