baby girl headbands, elyse

I thought these would make great gifts for new arrivals - a few of these will be given away but others are up for sale. and of course, I can always make more! email ajelessdesigns@gmail.com if interested. here's to hoping that my sisters will soon have some girls! :)




my new apartment, elyse

after a recent move (yes, still in the Boston area), I have been busy decorating our new place with craft projects. here is one from the bathroom - our towel rack - made from a garage sale purchase!

count up or down blocks, annette



I made a set of these blocks for my cousin's baby shower and they were such a hit that I got a second order on the spot! these blocks were originally designed to display baby's age, but could really be used to count down toward anything you might be looking forward to!

a.j.e.less designs, now in store!

after years of having customers tell us we should really look into ways of getting our products on the shelves (or online -- maybe someday!), we finally sought out some in-store possibilities. we landed on The Depot, a gift store that is completely volunteer run so that all profits are donated to Children's Aid and Family Services. The Depot is also known for being an outlet for local crafters and artists to showcase and sell their unique work. we were thrilled to hear that The Depot would love to display some of our crafts, including hand-painted glass pieces and gift bags, for starters. we encourage you to check out The Depot if you are looking for an original gift! Click here for more information about The Depot (mission, hours, etc).

engagement photo blocks, annette

stack them however you like! these decorative blocks are a great way to use beautiful photos from an engagement session.





one of a kind, annette

after saving wine corks for who knows how long, I finally found a good use for them. this one of a kind cork wreath became a house warming/engagement gift for my brother. wishing I had one for myself too... guess I need to drink more wine!
