Beth and Trisha are co-founders and 2 sisters with a love for parties, crafts, + DIY ideas. Trisha had moved to Florida to attend college and formed Trish’s Design Studio, a blog and shop dedicated to children’s parties. Beth moved down from Illinois later and decided to join forces. We wanted to change the name to something that would represent both of us and Jolee Studio was formed.

Jolee comes from combining our middle names (Jolene and Bree). Later we found that it’s also a word in the online Urban Dictionary. It means a girl who’s beautiful inside and out. That’s what we would like to strive for and we’d love it if others shared in our journey.
