Meet Kay Elise: Jewelry You Don’t Just Wear — You Experience

Kay Elise is really more than a traditional jewelry store — the focus is on jewelry and the experience around it.

Permanent jewelry is a big part of what we do. Guests can choose from a large selection of chains and connectors to create custom-fit bracelets, anklets, necklaces, rings, hand chains and other pieces that are welded together for a seamless finish.

We also create handcrafted jewelry, including very special memorial jewelry that can incorporate ashes or other meaningful items into a piece someone can wear and keep close.

One of the things I’m most excited to bring to The Roundabout is our jewelry-making experiences. We’ll offer date nights, girls’ nights and other experiences where guests can come in together, enjoy a drink, and actually take part in creating their own jewelry — including making rings together. I want it to be somewhere people come to celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, friendships, milestones, or simply have a fun night out.

We’ll also offer private parties and group experiences, so people can celebrate together while creating something meaningful to remember the occasion.

I’ve been making jewelry for about 25 years, and Kay Elise grew from my love of creating pieces that have a story behind them. The vision for the store is to combine that craftsmanship with an elevated, welcoming environment where people can shop, create, celebrate, have a drink, and spend time together.

So while there will definitely be plenty of beautiful jewelry, we’re building something that is really about connection and experience, not simply making a purchase.
