There are some trips that feel like coming home. My annual visit to The Phoenix in Georgetown is exactly that — part pop-up, part reunion, and always a reminder of why I love what I do. The Phoenix has been a longtime partner and friend to CMD. We’ve been showing up together for years, and every time I walk through  [...]

There’s something shifting over here at CMD — and if you’ve been following along, you’ve probably started to feel it. After years (and honestly, hundreds) of markets, shows, and wholesale relationships, I’m moving into a new phase — one that’s more intentional, more personal, and much more rooted in direct [...]

There’s something about this time of year that makes me want to get out, reconnect, and spend more time face-to-face. I’m especially excited for a few upcoming chances to do just that — whether you’re local or a little farther away. Here's what's coming up over the next few weeks: First, Open Hours this weekend [...]

After a season away, I’m back in Asbury Park, and opening The CMD Shop for walk-ins this Saturday, April 11th from 11am - 4pm. There’s nothing quite like seeing the entire collection in real life, in my opinion… So swing on by and get creative at The Ring Bar with me. There’s nothing I love more than opening my sunny studio [...]

 Every time I land in San Francisco, something in my body exhales. There’s a light that feels familiar and the smell of eucalyptus and sea water is so grounding.The fog rolling in over Twin Peaks feels like an old friend. It’s cliché to say I left my heart here — but if I’m being honest, I kind of did. CMD was born here [...]

While I’m out here, I’ll also be opening a limited number of in-person designer appointments in San Francisco. These are perfect if you’ve been wanting to recycle diamonds, 14k gold, or sterling silver, or you’re interested in a custom or special-occasion piece! It’s also a great chance to meet if you can’t make it to one of the pop-ups but still want dedicated time together. [...]

CMD is on the road (again!) — and this time, I’m heading west for a good chunk of the winter. I’ll be living in San Francisco from January 31st through March 31st (pinch me!), with Migs and all the jewelry in tow. I already have a couple of February events on the calendar, with more in the works for March. There's nothing quite like seeing you in real life, stacking in real time, and helping you find your next piece of everyday armor [...]

From now through December 31st, CMD Gift Cards come with a little extra holiday magic. When you purchase a gift card valued at $150 or more, you’ll receive 25% off the gift card total at checkout. For example, a $500 CMD Gift Card is yours for $375! No codes, no fine print — this bonus applies exclusively to [..]

Our Ready to Ship Collection is officially back and refreshed for the holidays! If you’ve been hoping for a last-minute gift (or a treat for yourself), these are the pieces that ship the fastest — within 1-2 business days from our NJ Shop. With the holiday rush in full swing, Express Shipping is now highly recommended for the most reliable delivery. [...]

 The holiday countdown — it’s happening! If you’re planning to place an online order this season, here’s your friendly nudge: our online shipping cut-off date is Wed. 12/10 for Priority Mail delivery. Because every CMD piece is handcrafted with care in our Upstate NY studio, my team needs plenty of time  to finish, polish, and mail your gifts so they arrive in time to spread that holiday [...]

Two full decades of making, learning, stacking, soldering, connecting, reinventing, and dreaming — all thanks to you. Whether you discovered CMD in San Francisco twenty years ago or stumbled upon us last week, you’re part of this story. And today, I’m thrilled to share something truly close to my heart. The Big Two-Oh Collection [...]

Just recently, I posted a TikTok of Tayci’s Dream Stack after a client purchased one online. That post ended up getting thousands of views, hundreds of likes, and more than a few “I need this stack!” comments. It’s been so fun watching the excitement unfold, because this is what CMD is all about: interactive design. [...]

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 [...]

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. [...]
