Each day at Billy’s, everything is still made from scratch. From our (pretty well known) Icebox Cake to our (pretty darn well known) Red Velvet Cupcakes—it’s as real as our grandmothers used to make. For us, that smell when you walk into a real local bakery is almost as important as the taste. And we’re never going to lose that. For Billy's, it's all about real ingredients, authentic recipes, and real people making it happen.
Stop by our shops in Chelsea, Tribeca, or the Upper West Side — and let our family take care of yours.
Join us as we Celebrate Homemade!

Hi, i'm Farah, the designer behind NaazDesignCo. I'm a Creative Director at heart and a boy mom X2! Making jewelry has always been a passion for me since college. I've played with so many different materials and have recently fallen in love with polymer clay and how creative and expressive it allows me to be. Each piece is made in small batches with patterns and combinations that are one of a kind. My draw my inspiration from my parents. My mom a, seamstress and my dad, an artist. Creativity has always run in our family and they are the driving force behind everything I have done in my career. Hope you enjoy the collections as much as I do!
Teaching holds a personal place in my heart with my husband being a pre-k teacher. I'm grateful to be able to support a charity that means a lot to me and my family.

Lara's Design
We specialize in classic and contemporary handcrafted beaded jewelry, made from quality materials from all over the world. Each piece of our beautiful jewelry is designed and handcrafted using a wide variety of beads such as; crystal, pearl, glass, wood, metal, resin, precious and semi-precious stones.
About the Artist
Beads and gems, fashion and crafting have fascinated Lara Danmola from an early age. Her passion for this beautiful art started in 1990 as a hobby for personal expression and satisfaction, which quickly became an addictive hobby. She found it to be fun, relaxing and rewarding. To enhance her knowledge about her new passion, she attended several jewelry making courses from great establishments like Jewelry Art Institute New York, F.I.T, Newark Museum and Y.M.C.A. New York City.
Through trial and error, Lara developed her own styles. Eventually she started designing and making more jewelry during the holiday seasons, giving them to family and friends as holiday gifts. The rest were sold at a craft shop in Flemington, New Jersey. She has been designing and making jewelry since then. Her particular specialties include custom designing and making unique pieces using gemstone and precious metals. Lara has also taught jewelry making at club workshops, birthday parties, her local Michaels craft store and was a visiting craft instructor at Seton Hall University. Nowadays she happily divides her time between designing and making jewelry, learning, teaching and parenting. Lara lives in NJ with her wonderfully supportive husband.

Meet Carolina and Daniela de Pontes, the twin sisters and artists behind Duo Denim. Duo was a way for us, as artists, to feel like we had a say in what we were wearing, and made every outfit feel like an expression of ourselves as individuals. It allowed us to take our art with us wherever we go, and we want to make sure every client that we work with has the same opportunity to do so. Duo also served as an opportunity for Carolina and Daniela, who study different disciplines at Pratt, to integrate their distinct studies and collaborate on ideas and projects that they aren't able to at school.
