Introducing: Joy Medley!!
A little bit about our brand:
Joy Medley is named after my late sister, Nissa Joy ("Joy" for most of her adult life) who taught us everything we know about jewelry making. Beading and making jewelry was one of her greatest passions in life, and she was extraordinarily talented at it. Not a single piece in this collection was created without thoughts and memories of her. The second half of our name, "Medley", represents our fun and eclectic mix of designs and styles, aimed at girls with all kinds of tastes.
"For Girls With Heart"
Our tagline, "For Girls With Heart" expresses our brand's love of charity and generosity. (A value we know also resides in the hearts of our young customers!) That is why all profits from the sales of our very special "HOPE" bow necklace are donated to the Orphan's Lifeline, Int'l, a beautiful charity organization that reaches out to help orphaned children all over the world. This is just the beginning of our focus on giving back, and we look forward to expanding that in the future, with your help!
Handmade
Each necklace is lovingly and carefully made by hand in my craft room or my mom's. Paige is our secret intel specialist, who helps us create designs that girls her age will love. She even occasionally helps string some beads, so it is really a three-generation effort. :O) Our focus is on quality over quantity, so make sure you snatch up your favorites before someone else gets them!
Free US Shipping!
We want our brand to be synonymous with generosity, and since free shipping always makes our heart skip a beat, we want to pass that on to all our dear friends and customers. Because we love you!! So happy birthday to you!
We are working on getting our own website (it's gonna be awesome, you guys!) but for now you can shop the spring collection on Esty at JoyMedleyShop. So have fun browsing our spring lookbook (at the top of this post-dont forget to make it fullscreen!), and our Etsy store! You can also find us on Facebook, Twitter (@shopjoymedley) and Instagram (@joymedley) Please feel free to spread the word to any friends who might be interested! Your support means the world to us.
Love you so much, lovelies!! Have an awesome day!!

Yay! This is so exciting! The necklaces look so fun and cute. I love the thought, love, and care behind the details of the business, from the brand name and tagline to the jewelry to the free shipping.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!! We are so glad you like it. :) We're pretty stinking excited about it, ourselves.
DeleteThis is so awesome!! What an amazing idea.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Hannah! We are really having so much fun with it already. :o)
DeleteThose are so super cute! I love the "For girls with heart." I think that is a good thing to think about! I love all the details. Your jewelry is beautiful, and I know your sister would be proud of you!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lynette! We definitely thought so too. As moms, it means a lot to us to nurture goodwill and generosity in young girls. Your compliments mean so much to me. :)
DeleteCongratulations!! That's so exciting!
ReplyDeleteXoxo
Thank you! We are just giddy with excitement!
DeleteIt's true how girls that age do want this type of jewelry. Great idea. Best of luck.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I sure hope they love them. :)
DeleteVery exciting! Your jewelry and photographs are great! I bought a necklace from your sisters shop quite a while ago when you mentioned it here and it remains a special favorite. <3
ReplyDeleteThank you Megan! That validation is what keeps me going some days, haha. And it means so much to me that you still have and love her necklace. Thank you.
DeleteMegan, I would love to see a photo of the necklace you bought from Nissa Joy! Thanks for sharing :-)
DeleteDisney, I am so so excited for you and this new venture! I'm so proud of you for doing such a bold and brave thing, even when there's still pain in it. Even though I didn't know your sister, I'm sure she would have loved this.
ReplyDeleteI love your designs- they are so much fun, yet so much feminine innocent GIRL. I would love for my nieces to wear these pieces! Jewelry for young girls is really rather trashy- filled with boy-crazy messages and punk-rock rebel. I love how these pieces you've designed are fun and stylish but also CLASSY. They're literally like the perfect girl jewelry EVER and can be used for years, even as young girls transition into teens.
I hope this venture takes you far, beyond your wildest dreams! Cheering you on, sending hugs, and praying many blessings on your endeavors! <3

Toria, this comment is going to carry me all through the week, thank you, thank you, thank you. I have to admit, there is pain in it. And it's much braver than I feel capable of being...your support means so much to me! :) I have a lot of faith, and I really believe our brand is going to be successful. Thank you for being with us since the beginning!!
DeleteWhat a beautiful tribute to your sister! I have two young girls of my own and they would absolutely love to wear your designs. Congratulations on this new and exciting venture and I wish you the very best. God bless!
