A Selfless Gift for Christmas
This Holiday season showed me the true meaning of the word "Giving". My dear friend Doris purchased a one of a kind Necklace. She called it her signature piece. The center piece of the necklace was a vintage 1940's Rhinestone clip. Impossible to ever find again. Here is her story in her words:
Lee, I have to tell you a story, Last Friday I was invited to a Christmas Party, through a guest. I went wearing my gorgeous piece I bought from you. My Signature Piece. The woman who was hosting the event kept staring at me. I had never met her before and she kept looking at me...
She finally approached me and apologized for staring. She said, I'm so sorry but the piece on your neck is magnificent. I immediately took it off my neck and gave it to her. Her reply-NO! I can't take it I said NO!- you have to have it if you love it that much...
And then she broke down and cried. It was the anniversary of her mother's death and the piece reminded her of her mother .....She felt like it was a gift from her mother and she couldn't believe that I gave it to her. She didn't even know me and she began to cry
...And so we passed the necklace on...BUT then I realized I had given away my SIGNATURE NECKLACE and I cried too.
I love this story My dear friend was so generous and selfless in the giving.....
May we be BLESSED in our selfless giving whatever it is

New Year New Adventures
Fleur de Lee had many adventures in 2016- It was exciting to be part of the New Jersey Flower show in February Focusing on my love for all things Alice in Wonderland. In May visiting with Universal Costumes. Seeing first hand the creations from so many Movies and meeting designer.truly a dream come true. But I think the one that truly was the years best was having the honor of joining with Cheyma Ben Hassine from https://www.cheyma.com to do New York Fashion Week. Cheyma's beautiful designs and Fleur de Lee Jewelry on the runway.

2017 has already began with New Vision and creativity. A customer from Germany asked if I would reproduce a selection from the series "Reign". And so this inspired me to start a line of Crowns, Tiaras and Headbands
