Friends, it’s almost here! This Saturday, October 4th, CMD officially turns 20 years old — and we’re celebrating with an unforgettable soirée in Asbury Park. The whole CMD Team is coming together under one roof for the first time in years, and we can’t wait to raise a glass, share some laughs, and toast to two decades of creativity, connection, and community with YOU.
We’ve pulled together some incredible local partners (who also happen to be female owned) to help make this anniversary party extra special:
C’est Cheese — Known for their stunning spreads, they’ll be setting the stage with charcuterie boards almost too beautiful to eat (keyword: almost 😉). Tina is the owner and her business is new to town… she’s the kindest human and I’m so happy to support her.
Sweet Dani B — If you know, you know. Dani’s cookies are little works of art, and she’s creating a custom batch just for us! Fun fact: Dani has a background in styling and worked with Martha Stewart for years.
The Bubbly Bar by Sweet Bar of Mine — Because no milestone is complete without champagne! We’ve hired the Bubbly Bar to keep glasses sparkling all night long. The owner, Stacy, is my sister’s super creative best friend and her business is new and already thriving. I’m so proud to have her cart at the event!
Harley Rose Floral — Nothing says celebration like flowers. I’m a minimalist so we’ll have a focal point centerpiece from Harley Rose. Sandy is so incredibly artistic so I love to give her freedom to give me a dose of beauty and whimsy. I hire her regularly to create dried wreaths for my home, too!
Together with these amazing women, we’re setting the table (literally) for a night to remember. You can expect:
Exclusive shopping: Fresh stock, the classics, and maybe even a few surprises.
Connection & community: Meet the makers, mingle with fellow jewelry lovers, and celebrate alongside our family and friends.
Great vibes only: Delicious bites, flowing bubbly, floral magic, and a party that’s been 20 years in the making.
The countdown is officially on, and we’d be honored to see you there. Bring your friends, wear your sparkle, and come ready to celebrate the past 20 years — and toast to the next chapter.
With gratitude and anticipation,
Colleen & the CMD Team

Friends, CMD’s 20th Anniversary Party is almost here and the nostalgia has really set in! I’ve been looking through old photos and reminiscing about CMD in the early days. That first leap of faith — saying yes to a studio I wasn’t sure I could afford — taught me something I’ve carried with me ever since: little risks open big doors. Every milestone CMD has reached since then has been built on that same [...]
I had no roadmap, no investors, and no idea where this path would take me. What I did have was grit, curiosity, and an unstoppable urge to create. Two decades later, CMD has grown into a small-but-mighty brand with a team I love, a community I treasure, and designs that still light me up at the bench. [...]

It's going to be a CMD reunion and anniversary party rolled into one. We’ll be showing off the CMD collection and we’ll have light bites and drinks so plan [...]
