and... we're BACK!

it's been a busy few months for a.j.e.less designs!

between Annette marrying the man of her dreams, Elyse moving into a new house, and Jenna making plans for a baby due this summer, we've been a little preoccupied!

but in the midst of it all, we always find some time for crafting! check out a few of our most recent designs!

1st birthday banner, annette

it's always extra special to work on projects for close friends & family! this fish-themed banner was the perfect decoration for my nephew's first birthday party. can't believe he is a 1 year old already! seems just yesterday that we gave him a special gift when he was not even a day old! Happy 1st Birthday Matthew!

baby gift, annette & elyse

we love when new customers contact us to place orders! but we love it even more when those same customers come back for more - this time for their friends! and to hear that this same customer is expecting another precious one of her own and will be contacting us yet again in the future?! even better! we can't THANK YOU enough for ordering from and referring a.j.e.less designs! this baby stat sign and set of coordinating count up or down blocks is the perfect gift for little Ewan and his family.

family name sign, elyse

Though it's always fun to craft (especially when the 3 of us are together!), it's even more enjoyable when the project is for someone you know and love. I am so excited for my sister as she was recently engaged -- this sign was my engagement gift to her and my soon-to-be new brother in law!

double sided wooden sign, jenna

Summer is a popular time for weddings! Congratulations to this newly married & happy couple! Here's a double sided sign we made for Eric & Nicole's new home!

accessory organizer, jenna

"can you make something like this?" 

even if it is a project we've never tried before, we often eagerly respond that "we would love to!"

that's how this project came to be...

perhaps we will make more in the future? 

it sure will look cute in sweet B's room! her bows and clips will add the finishing touches!

so send us pictures of your favorites from Etsy and we will see what we can do!

a little bit of everything!

I see I have been forgetful about posting our most recent pictures to our blog as well as our Facebook page. oops! I hope this post will catch us up! here's a few of the projects we've been working on recently:

can you tell our favorite colors to craft with lately?

turquoise, gray, and coral are popular choices!
