Autumne Lee, founder of Autumne Daze, is bringing her artistic passion to life through handmade, custom-designed press-on nails. Based in Atlanta, Georgia, she’s building a brand that blends art, fashion, and individuality—one set at a time.
Originally from Memphis, Tennessee, Autumne moved to Atlanta for a promising opportunity at the CDC. But when that job unexpectedly dissolved, it marked a turning point. Instead of returning to the job market, she leaned into a long-held passion: creativity.
Autumne Daze isn’t just another beauty brand. It’s a platform for bold, quirky, and truly custom nail art. Every press-on nail set is handmade by Autumne herself, using builder gel or acrylics for durability and finished with detailed hand-painted designs.
“I like things that are a little more unique, bold, and outside the ordinary,” she explains. Whether clients bring their own ideas or leave it to her imagination, she turns each set into a wearable work of art.

While custom nails are her primary focus, Autumne is already exploring new additions to her product line, including bejeweled socks and tie-dye t-shirts. Her artistic vision extends beyond the screen: she hopes to attend craft fairs and establish a physical presence in Atlanta through vending or local pop-ups.
She currently operates online and ships nationally, allowing her to connect with customers across the country. Still, the Atlanta creative scene has proven to be an inspiring and supportive place to grow. “Atlanta is a great city for young creatives. There’s a lot of potential here,” she says.
Though still in its early stages, Autumne Daze is steadily gaining traction. Autumne recently attended a local business mix-and-mingle event, where she made valuable connections and found encouragement through networking.
She’s considering launching a loyalty program to reward repeat customers, an idea she believes can help build a lasting brand community. “It gets people to return, for sure,” she says.
For Autumne, starting a business wasn’t just a career move—it was a personal awakening. “When you’re a creative person, you don’t feel good when you’re not creating,” she shares. Her work with nails has become more than a job. It’s an outlet for expression, and a way to craft the kind of life she truly wants to live.

Whether you’re looking for bold statement nails or custom designs with a personal twist, Autumne Daze brings a fresh perspective to the beauty space. Keep an eye out as Autumne grows her product line and expands her brand.
You can find her on social media via her Linktree, with updates, new designs, and future appearances at local events.
