Work in Progress

We are working hard to get this site populated with all our items and correct descriptions. Things may be a little messy for a bit.

You may also visit my our Esty shop for all listings and immediate ordering.

Wanna help? Send me a message and let me know what you like or don't like (I really need the feedback and don't worry about offending me). Using the chat function will also help me test the chat functions and work out any bugs while I'm learning the new system.

Meet the Team

Jenelle is the one you'll be communicating with as she does all everything from new designs, managing social media, photography, all the proofs and edits, ordering, bookeeping, website management, you name it, she does it.

Marc is her husband and he is the most supportive one on the planet! He is Jenelle's biggest cheerleader and support. When he's not teaching Biblical Studies at the local Christian university (his "real" job) he's printing, cutting, packing and doing whatever else Jenelle needs. Seriously. He's the best.

We met in 2004 and have been together ever since. Our wedding day in 2009 will forever be the best day of our lives.

About HALOdesignsSHOP

First of all, thank you so much for visiting my shop! You are truly the best part of my business. I mean that! I love working directly with customers to create something unique to them, that they love. I'll work until you think it's perfect! My shop is all about YOU. Once you love it, if you ordered prints, then I will professionally print your cards on premium cover stock paper (that's thicker than card stock) and ship them out to you. I strongly believe in 100% customer satisfaction and will do all I can to make sure you love your purchase. But don't take my word for it, check out my reviews.

Secondly, here's a little about me. I started designing cards after my husband and I were both laid off on the same day. Yep, that's right, we went from two incomes to no income. To put it simply, money got really tight, really fast. After being in charge of a large art department for an international giftware company for years, I was looking for something new. After months of no income, I decided to make my side hobby of designing holiday cards for friends and church family into a side hustle. I listed a few save the dates on Etsy to make little money to help tide us over until I figured out what to do. Well, long story short, people liked my work so I expanded. More people liked my work and spread the word and my "side hustle" tuned into a full time job, and part time job for my husband. I now love what I do and working on my own schedule allows me to volunteer with my favorite organizations (like Royal Family Kids, an organization that works with abused and neglected kids now in foster care), my church youth group, and so on. This shop has allowed me to work from home for years and support the family while my husband started and completed his PhD in the New Testament. He's now looking for his dream job of teaching college students about the Bible and the one Whom it's written about. We also might have an overly loved Pomeranian, named Halo. Yep, I named my shop after her. I told you she might be overly loved. I guess that's what happens when we don't yet have our own little humans. :)

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQs

Do you offer digital files?

We do not offer any digital files. Venue illustrations are sold exclusively as prints and are reserved exclusively for our print customers. If you decide you'd like anything printed, we'd love to work with you.

What if you don't already have my venue?

We would be happy to paint or draw your venue for you! New venue illustrations are $170-240 for watercolors (depending on the level of detail) and $140 for line sketches. Please note that new illustrations take 3+ weeks to create.

How long does it take?

In short, it varies based on what you order. We usually have first proofs ready in 1-3 business days (unless you have added new custom artwork) and ship 1-3 weeks from final proof approval, depending on what you order. Check the item description for more details. Delivery then typically takes 3-8 days.

If you need something sooner, we do offer a few rush options but have limited availability so please connect with us if you are on a tight timeline.
