This week, the story of By Design Canada and its founder, Lisa.
bydesigncanada.com is an online store featuring handcrafted jewellery for children and their moms.
A family oriented business, bydesigncanada.com found its origins serving the needs of my own family and friends. My daughter became quite popular on the flower girl wedding circuit, however trying to find appropriate jewelery pieces to accompany the wide variety of dresses was difficult. I have loved making my own jewelery for years, so I began to make customized pieces to suit the occasion and my daughter’s unique sense of style. With the immense popularity and requests for pieces from other children and their mothers, I knew I was on to something – bydesigncanada.com was born. With the help of my daughter, the company offered a creative outlet for a stay at home mom and has now become a wonderful opportunity to create and spend time with my new business partner, my daughter Maddy.
Our website features a wide array of children’s jewelery as well as pieces that mothers, grandmothers, etc. will love to wear. We also hand make custom photo pendants and new mom silver pendants that make beautiful personalized keepsakes.
Based in Toronto, bydesigncanada.com ships across Canada and provides a wide variety of gift options for all ages. Please visit us at www.bydesigncanada.com.
See you there.
