Handcrafted
Jewelry for
Cool People

I’m Lauren Ballard Leonhardt, a Spartanburg, South Carolina native, living with my husband and our two dogs. What began as a hobby quickly grew into a true passion, and that’s how Lauren Ballard Modern Designs was born.

I create handcrafted gemstone jewelry with a focus on casual, colorful, one-of-a-kind pieces that bring joy to everyday style. Inspired by art and interior design, I love blending bold colors and natural textures to craft jewelry that feels fresh, modern, and uniquely personal. Every piece is made with care, designed to be worn and loved for years to come!
