Meet Bailey (# 1),
Hi! I'm Bailey (#1), the owner of The Candid & Co. I started Candid in December of 2021 as a hobby with hand stamped jewelry. In the spring of 2022 I discovered permanent jewelry while scrolling on TikTok. At the time, permanent jewelry was SO new and only in big cities. Being a small town girlie I knew I needed to learn how to do permanent jewelry because I wanted bracelets for myself. I taught myself how to do it because back then there were no trainings or tutorials. Once I learned how to do it seamlessly, it took off. I was doing permanent jewelry pop ups literally every single day for months on top of my full time job until I finally decided to take a few days a week off to avoid being completely exhausted. It was at that moment I realized I had created something really special.
​
Yeah, the jewelry was cool but what people were absolutely loving was being able to get their permanent jewelry done with all of their best friends and family. After Covid, fun events and special time with your favorite people was so hard to come by. Our pop ups were bringing those fun times back to life. That is when my goal became to create the best girls nights by doing all of the hard work for you! You just had to gather your people and enjoy yourself. Since then we have attended hundreds of events and have got to be a piece of a memory people now cherish of having all of their friends and family together.
​
Once I realized that was my goal I decided to expand Candid to more than just jewelry. We have added custom hat bars, patch bars and lots of other fun personalized accessories. We also now offer our products on our website to shop online anytime!
​
I recently quit my full time corporate job to run The Candid & Co full time. When I'm not creating new products or hosting fun events you can find me hanging out at home with my fiancé, Colin, and our 4 dogs. We moved from southern IL to Jackson, TN at the end of 2022 and love being in west TN!
​
I am so glad you are here to follow along on the Candid madness. I can't wait to create your Candid piece soon!
Meet Bailey (#2),
Two Bailey's means double the fun! Bailey is the catch all girly at Candid. If you are attending one of our events in Illinois or Missouri, she is your girl.
​
Bailey is currently in nursing school. When she isn't doing school work, she loves being outside and hanging out with her friends and family.
​
Her favorite part about Candid is the permanent jewelry. She says it makes it so easy to be accessorized! It is so convenient to never have to remember to put your jewelry on.
