Here are some comments from people who I've designed sites for in the past. You can also read testimonials from the individual portfolio pages. Tons of fun "Working with Aeolidia was like working with a very stylish best friend. Tons of fun to be had! Everything was extremely smooth, as Aeolidia is very thorough and very patient with those who do not understand "computer talk". Their design-eye matched our style perfectly! We look forward to working with them on future projects." » Hayley Mete, Ecopiggy Exactly what I wanted "This website would not be possible without the great website designing team, Aeolidia. Their process was seamless due to their organizational skills and straight-up talent. I have never met such patient people in my life. Putting together a website is no easy feat but the wonderful people at Aeolidia make it so pleasurable. I want to thank my very talented illustrator, Daniele Young. She captured the feeling of exactly what I wanted with her drawings. I couldn't be happier with the outcome." » Erin Parker, 29olives I only wish I had hired Aeolidia sooner! "The Aeolidia team was great to work with. Even though they built the site from my design, they had great suggestions on making the site more user friendly. I'm also very appreciative of how patient they were with me with all the tweaks I've made while finalizing the site. Arianne was especially helpful from the very beginning on analyzing the pros and cons of the different shopping carts based on my needs even before we signed the contract. The project was very organized and I was able to see the progress as they worked on it. I only wish I had hired Aeolidia sooner!" » Grace Wang-Bishop, ZN Creative Arts Single best decision "I tell people all the time that hiring Aeolidia to design and set-up my website was the single best decision I have made since deciding to start my own business. Being a total newbie to e-commerce, Arianne and Shoshanna were lifesavers as they guided me through the process step by step. I had a million questions, and they were so patient as they answered each and every one I had, completely and in terms I could understand. From design to shipping options to technical issues, they always had an answer. And they're so organized! I loved the project management software and questionnaires they utilize. They asked me questions I never even would have thought to ask! I love knowing they are around if I need any help with my website in the future. I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again." » Diane Fawcett, Shakespeare's Bride Attentive to details "I have heard many great things about Aeolidia from various indie designers. I finally decided to have her come up with a site for my jewelry when I was ready one year later. Arianne was great to work with, from the making of the logo to the finishing touches of the site. The project site she used allowed us to keep track of every step of the process, which proved wonderful to refer to anytime. Arianne is patient, attentive to details and would work to make every change you want possible. Arianne is definitely a pleasure to work with and very professional. I am more than pleased with the whole experience and would recommend her to anyone." » Cindy Leong, Starry Designs Thrilled with my new site "I had been searching for a web designer for some time before I came across Aeolidia. Having come across one of their sites I was so taken with it that I checked for the designer and followed the link through. As soon as I saw their portfolio I knew that they were the perfect designers for what I wanted for Ninny Noodle Noo and I wasn't wrong. I'm thrilled with my new site. Working with Aeolidia has been a pleasure and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. " » Nicola Haxell, Ninny Noodle Noo Yay for Aeolidia "Working with Arianne and Chris was such a relief to someone who had never worked on an elaborate website before. Aeolidia's organised approach meant I was never unsure of the stage we were at and what I needed to do, it made it so much easier to digest and rewarding in that we could always tick off our goals and know we were getting closer to going live. I felt I could ask for advice on all aspects of the project and knew that their response was backed up with plenty of experience. Their patience was admirable (even with an 8 hour time difference!) and I was always confident that the end result would be exactly what I wanted. Now that the shop is online I am so happy and also comforted by the fact that I can get help if I need to. Yay for Aeolidia, and many thanks." » Neal Whittington, Present & Correct Creativity and professionalism "Leslie was a real pleasure to work with and I absolutely love the floral graphics she did to complement my logo. I'm real excited about integrating the illustrations into my website design as well. I would highly recommend Leslie and Aeolidia Design for their creativity and professionalism." » Susan Cousineau, Sweet Chic A rare combination "Thank you so much for all that you've done over the last couple of months. Your organization and speed coupled with attention to detail is a rare combination and made it truly a pleasure to work with you and your team! I'm thrilled with the site!!" » Julia Tema Contacessi, Ink and Paper Design Incredibly versatile "I knew both from reading their testimonials from satisfied customers as well as seeing their websites that Aeolidia was the web designer for my business. My only two worries going into this project was that they would not be able to live up to their crazy stellar reputation, as well as that the kind of site I wanted (elegant, bright, feminine) was slightly different in style from their best sites, which tend to be more quirky, fun and illustration driven. On both counts, my worries were unfounded. Not only were Arianne and Chris organised, professional and patient, they were also highly technically accomplished. When faced with obstacles, they never complained or took short cuts, but instead always presented options for solving the problems. Arianne always had my business's best interests at heart, presenting her honest opinions and giving great advice from her wealth of experience, but was never condescending or pushy, and always deferred to my preferences. She made this complex website world completely understandable, and condensed into the essential bits I need to know: no time-wasting, no troubleshooting, no need to learn from any mistakes. Equally importantly, Arianne is an incredibly versatile designer. It is difficult to find the best of both worlds in one web designer. She has a great eye and her design work does not impose itself, but instead works beautifully to bring out the best in your products. I really wasn't sure that it was possible (because I'm really hard to please), but I absolutely love all the design work she did for me. My website is perfect for my jewelry, with the exact feel I was going for. I work with lots of competent people, and down to the detail, Aeolidia is top notch in their professionalism and talent. This was probably the best decision I have made for my business, and I thank Arianne and Chris, truly!" » Sherry, Pequitobun I cannot recommend Aeolidia enough! "I have now worked with Arianne on 3 projects and she makes it way too easy to keep coming back! Since littleday press is a start-up business and I really didn't have much money to sink into it right away, she helped me come up with a quick and easy solution for getting an informational website together. This time I had the pleasure of working with Chris as well and everything went very smoothly from start to finish. I cannot recommend Aeolidia enough!" » Carrie Eckert, Little Day Press I am one happy camper! "I was first introduced to Aeolidia by Leslie Saito, who had such a great experience, I knew they would be the team for me. Arianne, Chris and Leslie were so awesome to work with and super helpful. Making the decision to have a website was huge. I knew I needed a team that would do it right and grand the first time. That's why I came to Arianne with my requests and she met all of them and then some. I have had many compliments on the look and ease of use. I am one happy camper! Leslie has been so wonderful to work with as well. Her designs were exactly what I desired for my business. It's like she read my mind! I can't say enough about her professionalism and work ethic. She always had every request I desired, completed right away." » Jen Way, Beebee Mod Best business decision "Making the investment to have my website redone by the team at Aeolidia has been one of best (if not THE best) business decisions I have made. The price was reasonable and worth every penny. I got 24 orders and two new wholesale accounts from my new website launch. I also have three pending first-time wholesale orders that contacted me and expressed interest from the Midori Jewelry website look. My website is now at that professional level instead of the "hobbyist" level, which gives prospective customers more confidence in buying. My customers (new and old), family, and friends are all raving about it!!! Mahalo for doing a top-notch job--I couldn't be happier!!!" » Traci Morinaga, Midori Jewelry I adore my logo! "Working with Aimee was amazing. She transformed all of my thoughts into my dream design. I adore my logo! Aimee created the perfect letters to pull together my image and business name projecting the whimsy of my business and the toys I make. I could not have asked for a better experience working with either Amy or Aeolidia." » Heather Sjoquist, Gnomeful Things Beyond amazing "My dream of having a business completely came to life when I signed on with Aeolidia. Arianne and Leslie were beyond amazing to work with. They were happy to deal with every single little thing I wanted to change or add. Being able to be such a big part of the project was great. I loved being able to see everything that was going on with the project down to the smallest alterations. Arianne also helped me chose a new business name and it has put my business on a whole other level. Leslie made an amazing illustration that perfectly complimented my new business name. I couldn't be happier with my overall experience with Aeolidia!" » Megan Kazukynas, Under the Oak I am beyond thrilled "Arianne was a pleasure to work with and a true professional, every step of the way. The process and the service Aeolidia provided made me feel incredibly secure in putting my business in their hands. I am beyond thrilled with my new website; it was worth every penny. The new site is easy to use and they provided me with plenty of tutorials, just in case- it's relieved the huge burden of updating my site regularly! I am definitely going to be coming back for their services, thanks Aeolidia!" » Laura Su, Prismera Design Responsive and professional "Choosing Aeolidia Design to design my website and print materials was one of the best decisions I have made! I absolutely love the website and everyone comments on how cute the design is - the website is perfect and just what I wanted. Arianne and her staff are always responsive and professional and I really enjoyed working with them - it was also wonderful to work with Zaara Windeisen, who came up with the colorful illustrations. I highly recommend Aeolidia Design and will definitely be working with them in the future." » Jennifer Doob, Wild Dill Absolutely wonderful "Arianne and her staff were absolutely wonderful to work with – extremely knowledgeable, organized, efficient, and so patient! Everyone remarks on how great our site looks and how well it works! We've recommended her to many people!" » Katie Mahoney, Lotus Jayne Friendliness and helpfulness! "Without reservation, I can highly recommend Aeolidia Design! Arianne guided me through this whole process of designing my web site. She helped me refine my vision and purpose, and developed a site that is fun and fresh and easy to navigate. I appreciate her willingness to answer all my questions, walk me through procedures, and make all the little changes and adjustments as we finalized the design. The tutorials she provides are so easy to follow, and I love that I can manage and update my site on my own. When you work with Aeolidia, you can expect professionalism, promptness, and just general friendliness and helpfulness! Arianne recommended Teresa Levy as an illustrator, and I could not be happier with how our logo and site illustrations turned out. I get so many compliments on them! Teresa was great to work with, with the ability to take a few vague words and descriptions and turn them into the perfect visuals for Let's Explore. Any revisions I requested were made quickly and happily. Arianne and Teresa, thank you so much! This has been such a fun process, I am almost sad to see it end. Can't wait for my business to grow, so we can work together again!" » Amy Anderson, Let's Explore Professional service with a personal touch "After seeing the name Aeolidia on several websites that I admire, Arianne was my first port of call when I needed a new logo for my business. Having worked with other designers in the past I can honestly say that, compared to others, Aeolidia gives a professional service with a personal touch. I look forward to working with Arianne and others in the future. :)" » Ruth Haokip, Poco Stress-free "This is the second time I have come to Arianne with an idea in mind and ended with a project I can be so proud off. With Arianne's professionalism and Aimee's talent, the duo listened to me and designed incredible illustrations. The organized system of communication through a personal project/message board and the quick responses from Arianne, made the whole process run efficiently and stress-free. Once again, I highly recommend Aeolidia Design." » Emma Thomas, Table Pets Extremely pleasant and professional "We are so happy with our new site and have had such a great reaction from our customers and fans. Both our sales and customer satisfaction have gone up with our lovely new store. Shoshanna was very patient in working with us to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. Danielle's illustrations couldn't have been more perfect. We highly recommend Aeolidia. Our experience was extremely pleasant and professional." » Erica Daking, All-Mighty completely what i want "i absolutely cannot recommend a more highly professional, proficient, patient & wonderful designer than arianne and her team. i was extremely hesitant to let go of my control reins and pass the design to someone else - but arianne was fantastic. she was completely thorough and speedy in answering all my questions and offering so much help. i love my new site - the design is completely what i want & i'm thrilled to have her behind it and still available to do more should i need it! i will be recommending arianne to everyone that needs any sort of design or web building for sure!!!" » Jenifer Lake, Sprout Studio WOW! "I just want to thank you guys, because you're very supportive and kind, English is not my first language so I thought it would be difficult to translate my ideas of this concept I had in mind, but I wanted to work with you so badly that I took the risk of not being understood. And WOW! you guide me through this process so smoothly that all happened too fast. I could not be more pleased with my logo and my business cards, I absolutely would work with you again, you're professional and I had the pleasure to work with Voz, she's a very talented illustrator, she read my mind and knew exactly what I wanted, we had great communication, perfect timing. Everyone say how beautiful my cards are, I'm so happy :0) thank you!!!" » Ari Martinez, Boutique Alternativa Natural Creative and handmade "When we were thinking about redesigning our website, we knew that there was no one but Aeolidia that we wanted to work with. All the sites that we admire are Aeolidia sites! They really seem to have a certain aesthetic that can create a slick site yet still maintain a creative and handmade look. I know NOTHING about web design and Shoshanna was more than patient with my questions. They took my rough sketch and turned into a gorgeous site. Thank you so much, we will be working with you again in the future and will highly recommend you to anyone who asks!" » Christina Platt, Bamboletta My-oh-my, are we glad! "We've wanted a site from Aeolidia for a couple years now, but thought we were saving money by doing it ourselves. Turns out we were just wasting time trying to keep it updated and looking nice. We're not graphic designers, and it showed. Finally we took the plunge and asked Arianne for her help, and my-oh-my, are we glad! Working with her was fantastic. She had the best ideas and was so accommodating to our 'vision'. Her patience was fantastic and her advice was so knowledgeable and experienced, this gal knows what she's doing. Working with Arianne has brought our business to another level, we now have a professional functional site that is cohesive with the rest of our work, and we are able to run the back-end administrative parts of our business in a professional manner as well. Our particular shop has streamlined our orders, wholesale accounts, and customer interaction, and is saving us SO MUCH time & energy, it's unreal. I highly highly recommend hiring Aeolidia. In most cases, your site is the only way people are going to know your business and it's more than worth it to make it fabulous, we promise!" » Rhonda & Elijah, Figs & Ginger You guys are the BEST!! "I cannot thank you enough for all your patience and guidance throughout this project. Thank you so much for answering all my questions. I know I had a LOT! You are a great teacher and I had such a positive experience. Leslie, thanks for my wonderful illustration! Arianne, Leslie and Chris....I could not have asked for a better team to work with on this project, you guys are the BEST!!" » Cherry Scalise, Bella and Lina Better than ever "Thank you Arianne and Chris! My site was in need of a make-over and Aeolidia did the trick. They made my site better than ever by adding a shopping cart and creating an orderly and easy to navigate layout. They listened to all my concerns and worked with me each step of the way. Thank you so much." » Missy Kulik, Missy Kulik Went very smoothly "Our site needed an update in terms of all the back-end operations. Before, we were doing all the page updates by hand, and the inventory was not linked to what appeared on the site. It made for a lot of extra work, so we decided we needed to look into getting a shopping cart system, but we really knew nothing about them. I'd visit other sites to see what shopping cart they were using and time and time again, the name Aeolidia kept appearing at the bottom. Aeolidia has a reputation among the indie community as the place to go when you need an e-commerce website, so based on that reputation I knew who to ask first. Even before Arianne replied to my email, the handy-dandy ecommerce chart on the Aeolidia site was extremely helpful in helping us decide just what it was that we needed. Having Shoshanna implement the cart, do all the trouble-shooting and visual tweaks for us went very smoothly. It was great to have someone else anticipate our needs and come up with solutions to any problems. I would highly recommend Aeolidia to anyone!" » Vivian Cheng, Blend Creations A joy to work with "I wanted to incorporate a new illustration for the blog that complimented Summer Salt's existing logo. I admire Leslie's original style and was so happy to have the opportunity to work with her. She is truly an amazing artist and a joy to work with. With a little jotted down list of what inspires me she designed this incredibly fun illustration that is just perfect. I adore her clever idea of the sweet girl blowing bubbles that are the colors from the shop's logo. Arianne was super helpful organizing the project and provided awesome feedback. I'm very impressed with how smooth the project went and love every last detail in the illustration!" » Nicole Peterson, Summer Salt blog Absolutely perfect! "This is my second time working with the Aeolidia team. and once again it has been a pleasure - very professional, helpful, patient, and friendly. Melissa Contreras did a beautiful job on the design work for SugarTreeHouse, I came to her with a rough design sketch of the STH logo and asked her to professionally touch it up, and what she did is beyond what I had hoped for, it is absolutely perfect! Melissa and Arianne never left me in the dark, and kindly explained everything that I didn't quite understand. In the end, thanks to Aeolidia, my shop now has a professional, elegant and original identity. Thank you so much, xo!" » Krystal Vigil, Sugar Tree House I am so very proud "Right from the very start both Arianne & Shoshanna were incredible. I had a few ideas of what I wanted and Shoshanna was able to blend them all together and come up with a business card that I am so very proud of. I was constantly changing tiny little details, changing them again and then changing them back, but this did not faze Shoshanna. She was so patient and offered suggestions throughout the process. All questions were answered in lightning speed and in great detail. I highly recommend Aeolidia Design and will be back for more! Thank you so much." » Emma Thomas, Lollypops & Polkadots A fabulous experience all around "A fabulous experience all around. Arianne has great taste, patience, skill, and I love how she goes out of her way to help us neophytes negotiate what can be a very confusing process. I love, love, love the end result and can't believe I have such a professional, sophisticated site for this price. Thank you Arianne!!!" » Dana Killion, Garnish Kind of sad the project is over "Arianne & Shoshanna are wonderful to work with and so much fun. I'm kind of sad the project is over... They are knowledgeable, prompt & extremely professional. All emails were answered in a timely manner and milestones met on time. Their project management tool is also great. It keeps all correspondence, files and important factoids in one place. It makes communication that much easier. The family website turned out better than I had imagined. I love it! Working with Aimee on the image was also wonderful. The image of the baby and beagle is extremely adorable and I get so many compliments on it. I loved it so much I had it printed on the baby's birth announcements. I might have to get it tattooed on my arm ;)." » Janina Wills, Wills Family I couldn't be happier! "My first time having a logo/illustration designed, and I couldn't be happier! From the very first email Arianne was super helpful and supportive. I choose Leslie Dallion to work on the logo because her sample art is incredible and I love her illustration style. With some of my ideas, Leslie created an even more perfect illustration than I could have ever described or wished for. There wasn't any part of the design process where I was left dark, Arianne and Leslie kept me up to date with everything that was happening, and I felt really involved. I am so pleased with the outcome, I can't thank you both enough. For anyone looking for a logo or site design you can't go wrong with Aeolidia. I'd recommend them and Leslie to everyone!" » Sophie Ruane, Fairytale Noir Prompt, organized and patient "After a great first experience with Aeolidia I knew a redesign would be done with the same quality and care. They are true professionals... always prompt, organized and patient. Working with Aeolidia is a pleasure! Thanks Shoshanna and Arianne!" » Sandy Snead, Adorn v2 NEVER ceases to amaze "They did it again! This is the second time I have had the pleasure of working with the Aeolidia team and as usual they are patient, helpful and so easy to work with! I approached Arianne wanting to get a new logo, business cards and a redesign of our website. All I knew about the logo was that I wanted a pair of flip flops in there somewhere and I wanted it to look refreshing and simple. Aimee Ray provided me with just that! Usually I am pretty picky with how I want things but her first logo mock-up's were soooo close to what I was looking for that after a little tweak here and there, I decided on one fairly quickly! Arianne did the same thing with the business cards -- she knew exactly what I was thinking as far as how I wanted it to look! I was a little nervous about the redesign just because I wasn't quite sure how I wanted it to look other than I wanted it to jump out a little more and just wanted something different. It was no surprise that Shoshanna came up with the exact look and feel that I wanted for the site! The team at Aeolidia NEVER ceases to amaze me....this group of talented individuals truly has a knack for knowing exactly how to put their clients thoughts, ideas and words into creating the sites that they do! Thank you again Aeolidia!" » Ellen Flores, Flip Flops Paperie Everything is laid out so clearly "I knew I wanted Aeolidia to work on my site from the very first moment I stumbled upon theirs months ago and am extremely glad I finally got the chance to work with Arianne. Everything you've read here about how good, efficient, patient and helpful she is is completely true. She works on your project with great organization and everything is laid out so clearly from the very beginning that you're never lost and left wondering what's going on or what needs to be done next. She is prompt, efficient, and very clear in her explanations and instructions. She gave me good advice whenever I was unsure which was very helpful. She's just great and I really cannot recommend her enough. Thank you so much!" » Amirah Cheung, A Little Luster The most wonderful sites on the internet "Working with Arianne & Shoshanna was an absolute pleasure. They worked with me, even visiting me in person, to create a site that was exactly what I wanted to represent my shop. Answering my emails at all hours and consistently answering my millions of questions, Aeolidia has the most wonderful sites on the internet and I would recommend using their services 100%!" » Suzy Fairchild, Frock Shop A special charm "Once your project begins it's a completely organized system. It's amazing how many details go into a design, so I love that Aeolidia uses a message board. I knew from the first mock-up design that Shoshanna totally knew my style. There were a lot of new concepts + terms to pick up. Shoshanna was more than patient with me over the little things. My silly questions were always answered right away. Aeolidia's main goal is that you are totally happy with your site. Both Arianne + Shoshanna have the unique talent of collecting a little info about your business + creating the perfect shop for you. They stand out as true professionals + are genuinely down-to-earth business women. Aeolidia has a special charm about their designs. It's like walking into that favorite shop downtown...online. I love my new shop!" » Nicole Peterson, Summer Salt Design Amazed me with all the right questions "I heard about Aeolidia this past winter through a friend, and I am so glad I contacted her! I wanted to discuss with Arianne a website I wanted built for my small business. There was a prefab design that was just perfect for my budget, and then Arianne amazed me with all the right questions, so the prefab could really suit my vision, my business and my personality. I asked if Daniele Young could do my illustrated logo and girl, and the funny thing is the girl looks like me, in illustrated form of course! The crazy thing about it is that Daniele didn't even see a picture of me! Arianne was able to take the illustrations, photos, colour scheme, and her magic coding skills and make a truly wonderful web shop for my business. Plus, having the ongoing support after the project is complete, is something that is rare and definitely valued... I appreciate everything!" » Michele Scott, I heart felt Amazed me every step of the way "It has been a very long journey of 'hurry up and wait' that I have been on with Arianne, Aimee, and Shoshanna. This group of talented people has amazed me every step of the way. To be able to see ideas that were once only figments of your imagination come to life on the screen is truly remarkable. Throughout the process there have been several obstacles on my end that held things up and Arianne has been great about putting it on hold but just as great about getting right back into things as soon as I was ready. Arianne and her team are a huge source of knowledge and when something came up that they didn't know, there were no lengths they wouldn't go to get an answer. I am so thrilled with the outcome of the site and the continued support I am receiving even now that the site is live. There is no doubt that as our site changes and grows, that I will be looking to Arianne and her team for answers, advice and inspiration. It has been a true privilege and joy working with Aeolidia and I am very much looking forward to future work!" » April Hill, bébé books A perfect fit "From the beginning, I knew Arianne and Shoshanna were a perfect fit for my small business website design. I had SO many questions, and they both responded promptly, professionally, and with so much patience. I came to them with a few foggy ideas about style and inspiration, and they whipped up the most lovely design that meets all of my needs and complements my jewelry design aesthetic. Their tutorials were clear and concise - perfect for a web beginner like me. Their project management system helped me to stay focused and organized, and now all of the solutions, tips, and resources that they suggested throughout the project are archived for easy reference. Arianne and Shoshanna truly want their customers to be happy, and it shows in the way that they manage the myriad of details that goes into successful web design. I had such a positive experience with Aeolidia - I will absolutely recommend them to all my friends and colleagues! In the future, if (or is it when?!) I need to add functionality to my website, I'll certainly call on Aeolidia Web Design." » Jenni Moore Myers, milk&honey Far exceeded my expectations "One day I found a beautiful website. I happened to be in the process of developing my own site, so I quickly followed the link to Aeolidia. After a mere glance at Aeolidia's portfolio, I knew I had found my dream web designer. I was impressed by one amazing website after the other, and could only hope Arianne could work her magic with mine. I was in for the most incredible experience. From the beginning and all the way through the design, coding, and testing process, working with Arianne was fabulous. Arianne was always, and I mean always, timely and professional. If I had a question, it was answered. If I had a suggestion, it was done. If I wanted to see options, there they were. Even when asking for the slightest change, "just to see." there was never a moment of hesitation. And with expert guidance the entire time. I can truly say that working with Arianne far exceeded my expectations. I was hoping for a website that reflected my image and style, and am I ever thrilled with the final product! You can bet I will recommend Arianne again and again. If you would like the website of your dreams, rest assured that you do not need to look any further." » Cindy Wimmer, Sweet Bead Studio A great group of people "You are a great group of people to work with, so friendly, talented, fast and organized. I can't wait to show the world my logo!!!!!" » Mary Pruitt, Blue Mockingbird Designs An extremely positive experience "I am SO happy with the way my site turned out. It is professional and clean - exactly what I envisioned. These ladies put up a lot from me....I freaked out and changed my mind on several different things and they took it in stride. I was always treated like I was the first person to ask the question and the answer was always put in a way that I understood it. The only thing that would have possibly made things easier is a couple of phone consultations instead of going back and forth on email - but really overall this was an extremely positive experience for me and I will for sure recommend Aeolidia to other people!! " » Meghan Williams, Birdcage Jewelry It flippin' ROCKS! "My store is done and it is the most beautiful thing ever. It came out exactly how I envisioned and I could not be happier. It flippin' ROCKS! Shoshanna was wonderful to work with; she was able to put together everything I asked for. Sometimes anticipating what I would want and other times just having great advice and suggestions. It felt like a true collaborative project and I learned so much. Thank you so much I could not be happier! I adore my website!" » Tiffini Elektra X, tartx Thanks "Thanks to both Mariah and Arianne for pouring their creative juices over the logos and web banner they created for us!" » Hannah, Sling Diva The process was faultless "I've worked with several designers and programmers over the years, but none who were able to translate visually the functionality I wanted to add to my site. Arianne is the real deal. She absolutely understands small business e-commerce. I felt both challenged - in a good way - and supported during the extensive redesign. My site was delivered on time and on budget. It looks great and it works great. The process was faultless. Hurray for Aeolidia!" » Nicole Morell, Honeybunch I knew she'd be a perfect fit "I was so thrilled when Arianne said she'd do my site as there's no other web designer I even considered! She's made some of favorite sites and I knew she'd be a perfect fit for my style and vision. She definitely lived up to all my expectations and then some! She's patient, super helpful and always on the ball. She was able to take my semi-scattered design ideas and harness them to come up with a brilliant site that looks and functions better than I could have ever imagined! She offers lots of different ideas until you're absolutely satisfied with one and is obviously incredible at the back-end coding and mumbo jumbo that I don't understand :) I'm just so excited with how the site turned out, I think it's perfect and I will definitely come back to Arianne for any updates or re-designs and would recommend her and Aeolidia in general for anyone looking for a creative, professional, friendly web designer! Thank you so much Arianne for turning my little vision into a beautiful reality!" » Jena Coray, Modishoppe the Dream Team of web design "Shoshanna and Arianne are the Dream Team of web design! They are extremely professional, hard-working, knowledgeable, and have that amazing ability to take your random ideas and turn it into a beautiful website. I was very impressed with their organization, creativity and patience - I must have asked Shoshanna to change a million tiny nit-picky things throughout the whole process! She was always very helpful and accommodating, right down to the last polka dot. Thank you both so much. I LOVE my new website, and will highly recommend Aeolidia to everyone!" » Jennifer, Honeycake Designs Couldn't be more pleased "Junior Society is the second web site for which I've used Arianne Foulks and Aeolidia and couldn't be more pleased with the results. Arianne is that rare professional that quickly responds to emails, sticks to the schedule and completes tasks on time. The combination of having worked with Aeolidia in the past, Arianne's expertise in coding and web construction and starting the project with a good idea of how I wanted it to look and function allowed us to complete this site in record time. I have no reservations in wholeheartedly recommending Arianne and Aeolidia!" » Robert Mahar, Junior Society A great pleasure "It has been a great pleasure to be able to work with Shoshanna of Aeolidia. A true professional, Shoshanna has made the whole experience so much easier with her patience and dedication. No question is too stupid and no request is too small. She even worked on the website the weekend during the launch and stayed up very late to make sure the site was ready to go live. We are very proud and excited of how the website turned out. As a matter of fact, we have been receiving great feedback from our vendors and friends who visited the site. Everyone loves it! Thank you, Shoshanna and Arianne of Aeolidia for making this possible." » Yenny Goh, Ochelly So excited "I was so excited to finally have a reason to use Aeolidia when I decided to start a website of my own as I had been a fan of Aeolidia for years. They are a talented group and I was lucky to work with Shoshanna who moved my blog from Blogger to Wordpress then linked it to my URL littlewillow.com. They did everything they said they would on time and were always responsive and helpful with my questions. I will definitely use their services again as my website expands." » Larkyn, Little Willow Creating the site was a joy "I cannot rave enough about how wonderful it is to work with Arianne or how unbelievably talented she is. She was able to take my jumbled and unorganized ideas and fashion a complete site using her amazing ability to intuitively know exactly what I wanted. She is a wondergirl, able to answer every single silly question promptly and with thorough answers, displaying her knowledge and genuine care for her clients. Her knowledge of coding and design is extremely thorough and inspiring. And if for some reason she doesn't know an answer, she's more than willing to do the research for you and eventually give a perfect answer and solution. Every aspect of creating the site was a joy because of Arianne's patience and understanding. Running an online business requires great communication with the site designer and I'm so very pleased to have Arianne as my "website girl", always there to get me out of a bind, fix little nit-picks, and overall help make One Good Bumblebee a success. As the site's illustrator, Daniele Young was such a pleasure to work with. She listened to my ideas and implemented them with her own unique style, creating adorable illustrations and the overall identity of One Good Bumblebee. Her patience was admirable, even when I had her change the color scheme a hundred times or wanted tiny things altered to perfection. And perfection is what she gave me." » Katey Nicosia, One Good Bumblebee v2 A fantastic job "I cannot thank you and Shoshanna enough for doing a fantastic job. When I first came to you I was so distressed about my current site and I knew I had to do something with my old site but I had no idea where to begin. Dealing with Shoshanna was such a great pleasure and she was such a saint dealing with me, even with all the changes I wanted, I told her I wanted something girly and pink with clean lines and she still made it happen even on a tight budget. This experience working with the both of you was just a pleasure and so professional, I would highly recommend your team to anyone. With that being said - I really can't thank you enough for reconsidering taking on this job! I really feel my new site will do great and couldn't have done it without you guys. Thanks again." » Jennifer O'Riley, O'Riley Design Consistently wowed "For eight years, I wore many hats in the Web design business and trusted no one's work but my own. After starting and growing my retail store, I found I was too busy to take care of my website myself, and with much nervousness, I decided to try and find someone to help me take my site to the next level. I noticed that all the sites I liked were by Aeolidia. In short order, I hired them and was consistently wowed by Arianne and the team through the entire process. Aeolidia handled the smoothest site implementation and conversion that I have *ever* been a part of. Tiny details were addressed, useful suggestions made and all questions answered in a timely and professional manner. Arianne deserves sainthood for her patience and I am sure to defer to her expertise in the future." » Rena Tom, Rare Device Exceeded our expectations "Arianne exceeded our expectations on converting our existing website to Zen-Cart, we knew the existing site would be a bit of challenge and Arianne did a superb job of making it look exactly as we hoped and making it much easier for us to add new inventory. She was very helpful, patient, and very professional and offered a lot of advice and tips to get us started smoothly with Zen Cart. Arianne just went the extra length to ensure we were pleased with the final result. Thank you so very, very much! We love the site!" » Rodellee, Adore Vintage Working with Aimee was a great experience. "Working with Aimee was a great experience. I tried to give her as much information about the image I was looking for and with that she created a great starting point. And from there with my suggestions and ideas she accommodated my needs and created exactly what I had in mind with speed and ease. I love it. Thank you!" » Jessica Dickens, Jessica Designs Patient, clear, creative "Thanks so much for everything. You've been wonderful to work with. You are a great (patient, clear, creative) teacher, and a wonderful designer. Thanks for taking all my chaos, and making it look like I've always known what I wanted to do! This has been such a positive working experience. Thanks again." » Sarah, Sarah Apple Completely fantastic to work with "Shoshanna and Arianne were completely fantastic to work with. They took what was in my cluttered head and made it beautiful. I can't get over their level of patience with me and my many questions and requests. Everything was so organized and clear - I always knew exactly where we were in the process. Thank you so much for giving me something way cooler than I was hoping for. I will recommend you guys to everyone!" » Tammie, Head Full of Pixies Friendly & professional "The team at Aeolidia are very friendly & professional. They listened to my ideas, took them and turned them into a gorgeous layout for my livejournal. I couldn't have had a better experience, if you're looking for talented and affordable web designing, I highly recommend Aeolidia to you!" » Krystal, Uhhuhher A dream come true "Working with Aeolidia was a dream come true. They are so supportive of your ideas and goals. I came to them with a very rough idea for a logo and within a few days they turned it into something so cute and fun! I will definitely be working with Aeolidia for all of my future projects. " » Malissa, Bumbleberries & Honeybriar Attention to detail "Arianne's dedication to creating a site that best fits her clients is one of the many reasons I consulted her again when I decided to give Allymoon a new look. Working with Arianne is such a pleasure, and her attention to details not only guarantees a job well done, but also, a website worth every penny (and more). Arianne continues to impress me with her efficiency, professionalism, generosity and kindness; she is truly a gem in this industry! I love Allymoon's fresh new look, and have Arianne to thank for it. Thank you for such a marvelous site!" » Jacinta, Alllymoon v2 I'll be sure to come back! "Arianne is terrific to work with! It's not so much that she can take the picture in your head and turn it into a great website - she can take the vague, nebulous notions in my head and turn them into a great website. She's very patient with all my "um" and "I don't really know" answers, and takes the time to help me figure out what I mean, and then runs with it and turns out terrific websites. This is the second web design I have had done by Aeolidia, and when I need an update in the future I'll be sure to come back! ^_^" » Caitlin, Spunky Kitty v2 This woman is a true wonder! "When I came to Arianne with my vision of a beautifully designed, fun, and functional website I was virtually clueless with all things computer related. Through each step of the way Arianne was helpful, patient, and always willing to offer support when it was needed (and because of my knowledge level, it was needed a lot). I cannot say enough good things about not only the quality of Arianne’s design work, but her professionalism and creativity as well. From small to large-scale projects... I recommend her for it all! This woman is a true wonder!"" » Heather Pudewa, Wren Eleven I am glad I took the leap of faith "Arianne and Shoshanna were incredible to work with. Ultimate professionals. I have to admit that I was leery about starting this project with people that I have never met and online...how was that going to work? Oh did it work! I am glad I took the leap of faith. Shoshanna completely captured the look that I wanted for my site and if I wanted any changes made she was understanding and not insulted. But the main thing I found so helpful was the amount of patience and respect she had for me as a client. She walked me through this process and made sure I understood everything. Arianne and Shoshanna have made my small business dream come true. I hope my future in business is as positive as my experience with Aeolidia Design!!!! " » Jill Kraus, j. lily Such a gifted illustrator "I'm extremely pleased with my work with Aeolidia. Arianne and Daniele Young went above and beyond what I ever expected when looking for someone to work on my new logo. Arianne was in constant communication with me; there was never a moment where I had to wonder what was going on with the whole design process. Daniele, being such a gifted illustrator, took everything I loved into consideration (even down to my polka-dots!) and brought my dream logo idea to life. I couldn't have asked for a better team to work with. I've recommended the Aeolidia Design team to anyone who's been impressed by my logo. They have a definite repeat client in me and I'd love for others to have the joy of working with them!" » Jessica Kathryn, Jessica Kathryn Originals On time and on budget "I researched several web designers before coming across Aeolidia Design. I was pretty specific about my site design and was looking for some very customized options and I received some pretty outrageous quotes. Of all the designers I contacted, Aeolidia was the ONLY one who offered me EXACTLY what I was looking for at a reasonable price in a reasonable time frame! Arianne Foulks is incredibly organized, knowledgeable, patient and talented and her communication skills are excellent. I absolutely LOVE my web site and receive compliments on it daily. Arianne completed the project on time and on budget and I am able to update the site on my own thanks to her help and tutorials. I couldn't be happier! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Arianne!" » Suerae Stein, Suerae Stein Arianne can take ideas and form them into something grand "Arianne has been great, once again, coming up with a new theme and design for my website. I wanted a change that would reflect my personality and she came up with something that I really love that has the colors and mood that I was looking for. Arianne can take ideas and form them into something grand. She was patient and helpful in every way, and when I had a question she would answer promptly because she takes care of her clients. When she creates your site, you're never alone even after the design is finished. She still is one of the best designers out there and the proof rests in my site design and her awesome portfolio." » Andrea, Dreams & Jewelry v2 Thrilled with my experience "I am thrilled with my experience working with both Arianne and Shoshanna. I had planned to do a simple PayPal site myself, but decided that I wanted to be able to accept credit cards and have a very professional online store that can be easily maintained and updated. I approached Aeolidia Design with a clear idea of how I'd like my shop to look, and no idea how to make it happen and function the way I wanted. I am very pleased with the entire process and the result of my web shop! I will recommend them highly to anyone who wants a professional looking online shop that is easy to maintain and update at an affordable price." » Jaime Zollars, Jaime Zollars Illustration I couldn't be happier "I'm so glad I came across Arianne's website when I was looking for someone to help me set up my online store! I couldn't be happier with the process of putting together the site or how it has turned out. Arianne is extremely professional, organized, and endlessly patient. Her tutorials have made learning how to update and maintain my site so easy. I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted my shop to look like and Arianne was able to do everything I wanted and more! After this experience I wouldn't want to work with anyone else and would recommend Arianne to anyone. Thanks Arianne!" » Sibylle Hartmann, Prickly Pear What a great experience! "What a great experience! When I found the Aeolidia website I knew I wanted to work with them. Not only do they design a website that you'll love, they'll hold your hand all the way through it and if you're clueless like me, that's a great comfort! Arianne is very professional, patient and only too happy to answer all your questions, no matter how silly you might think they are. I will most definitely work with Aeolidia again in the future!" » Holly, Holly Jayne I highly recommend this dynamic duo "Talented, professional, organized, helpful, enjoyable, understanding, patient, experts...so many words to describe Arianne and Shoshanna! My first encounter with another web design company was not very positive so I was a little nervous about choosing another...I'm sure glad I did though! I LOVE our site!!! I barely knew anything about web design and had tons of questions - Arianne and Shoshanna walked me through everything in a way that I could understand! Aside from the beautiful sites they have worked on, it was Arianne's professionalism and organized project method that drew me to Aeolidia. Combine that with Shoshanna's insights in creating exactly what I wanted, answering all of my questions and making sure I was happy with every detail, I could not have asked for a better team to help bring our business to life online! I highly recommend this dynamic duo for your website needs - thank you Aeolidia!" » Ellen Flores, Precious Paperie You won't want to work with anyone else! "After the incredible experience of having my Pen & Parchment site redesigned by Aeolidia, there was absolutely no question as to who I would ask to help me with my newest project! As usual, Arianne was wonderful to work with and her coding skills and creativity were absolutely crucial in developing the website I envisioned. Once you've worked with Aeolidia you won't want to work with anyone else!" » Carrie Eckert, Colin Maguire Professional, pleasant, and absolutely talented "Thank you again for everything - I love it all. It was an absolute pleasure to work with you and Shoshanna in creating my website. You are both so professional, pleasant, and absolutely talented. I will highly recommend Aeolidia to anyone who asks!" » Dana Figlar, peony & fig Professional, courteous, patient, and efficient "Arianne has been absolutely fantastic in the process of creating my website. Professional, courteous, patient, and efficient. I have a lot of confidence in her and I am extremely happy with her work." » Terri, Made by Terri Absolutely thrilled "Arianne, do you ever get tired of hearing how wonderful you are? I hope not because YOU'RE WONDERFUL. Thank you so much for helping me out. The site looks fantastic! I'm absolutely thrilled." » Kristen Townsend, Mood Swing v2 Easy, fun and a learning experience "As a complete novice in the world of web design, I was a bit intimidated by the whole thing at first. Arianne at Aeolidia made the process easy, fun and a learning experience that was far better than any class I might have taken or book I would have read. From the graphic design to the technical execution and support, everything was excellent. I absolutely love my site and am a bit sad now to take off the Aeolidia training wheels and go off on my own. I will absolutely recommend (and have already done) Aeolidia to everyone and I plan to continue to work with them on projects in future! " » Stacy, Sadie Shop Beauty and success "The true beauty and success of Aeolidia is organization and professionalism, which speaks volumes to the process and feel of my website." » Heidi, peek keep She knows her stuff! "Arianne has done superb work on my website. I'm extremely happy with it! I have received so many compliments on how beautiful my website is from customers and fellow website owners! She was VERY patient with me and answered all of my questions, and believe me, I asked a lot of questions! She knows her stuff! I feel sad now that my services are almost over with Arianne because she is a great support. I will be using her in the future for ALL of my website and ad needs. She's top notch and this is why she's known to be one of the best website designers out there." » Andrea Oda, Dreams & Jewelry Helpful in all aspects of the process "Arianne has been fabulous to work with. She is extremely knowledgeable and creative in her approach to web design. When my website ideas were all over the place, Arianne was able to help me focus on what was important. She is helpful in all aspects of the process: design, photography, hosting, shipping rates, you name it. I have and will continue to recommend Arianne and Aeolidia to my friends and colleagues. Again - thanks for everything! I've had a few sales on my website in the last week - even one from a total stranger in Australia! Whoooohooo!" » Rebecca Dorris, P1 Unless Otherwise Noted Uncannily intuitive "Part mind-reader, part miracle-worker, Arianne provides premium, first-class web service for fantastically reasonable prices. From the first day of production to the very last, Arianne was professional, quick, thorough, and uncannily intuitive. Questions were answered promptly and efficiently, and Arianne's platform for communication was beyond impressive. Her tutorials were well thought out, extremely helpful, and now I have the luxury of referring to them as needed. Thanks to Arianne, I now have better control over my site and inventory, and since re-launching, sales have magically increased! To say that it was a pleasure to work with Arianne is truly an understatement!" » Leslie Saito, The Paper Princess Heard and valued "I just wanted to say thank you so much for the amazing job you did on my website flirtygems.com. Going into the project I had an idea of how I wanted the site to look and the amount of money I wanted to spend. You not only stayed exactly on budget but the site looks better than I ever expected. It is easy to navigate and I have already received tons of feedback all saying how beautiful the site looks. Thank you also for always being there with a quick response through the whole process. I really felt I was not only being heard but really valued. Thank you for a wonderful job." » Alana Imbruce, Flirty Gems Turned into a full-fledged business "I can't thank Arianne enough for all her work in getting this site together for me. I approached her with only a name and my products and she's helped me turn that into a full-fledged business complete with business & postcards, a web ad, a print ad and a vinyl banner for craft shows! Everything was either exactly as I pictured it or better. The message system she set up for us made it so easy for me to keep track of what was happening with the site and to refer back to tutorials for each step. I'm also amazed that she was able to finish everything ahead of her estimated date, even with all the new projects I threw at her! I highly recommend Aeolidia for their services. Also a huge thanks to Allison Cole for coming up with the perfect illustrations and logo. I'm in love with them!" » Courtney, My Sunset Road Clever and quick "Clever and quick are just two words I can use to describe Aeolidia services. Arianne went above and beyond in creating my website. At first it was really hard for me to articulate what exactly I wanted. Arianne was patient and gave me wonderful suggestions. One thing I really liked and appreciated was that the whole project was planned out from start to finish, so I always had an idea where I was in the process." » Shevon Gant, Shevon Gant Ceramics Knew exactly what I wanted "Arianne and Shoshanna are a dream to work with; complete professionals, who go above and beyond. They answered every question promptly, offered suggestions and made the entire process pain free. Shoshanna created the perfect site; she knew exactly what I wanted when even I wasn't sure. I cannot thank them enough." » Melissa, Sweet Melissa Walked me through... "Working with Aeolidia Design was a wonderful experience. Being a technophobe, I was extremely nervous about starting a website, but it was vital to taking my business to the next level. The minute I saw the Aeolidia Design portfolio, I was thrilled that I finally found affordable prefabs that did not look prefab---based on my written description, Arianne even adjusted the colors of the prefab to tones that matched the look my jewelry. She walked me through the process of getting started and brought up important questions that I had not even considered. If patience is indeed a virtue, Arianne has it in spades. She was able to answer all questions professionally and thoroughly, no matter how silly I felt asking her. It is reassuring to know that Arianne will continue to be available as my business continues to grow. I would highly recommend Aeolidia Design to anyone starting a retail website." » Angela, Ambient Design Expertise, professionalism and dedication "My experience with Arianne and Aeolidia was outstanding from day one! I LOVE the timeline and message system she has set-up. It makes the whole process extremely efficient. Even with multiple design revisions, a transfer to a new host halfway through the project and numerous customizations to Zen Cart, she managed to remain within my original budget estimate! I am so grateful to have been given the opportunity to work with Aeolidia on the redesign of my website. Arianne’s expertise, professionalism and dedication to her clients are unsurpassed." » Carrie, Pen & Parchment Smart as whips "How do I love Aeolidia? Let me count the ways... Honestly, there are so many adjectives I could use to describe Aeolidia - talented, friendly, organized, extremely responsive, smart as whips, or how about awesome in every way! Our experience was nothing but wonderful from the get-go. The best part to me was the fact that they lay everything out for you - to-do lists, timelines, message boards, etc. It makes everything so easy. I've already recommended them to everyone and anyone who will listen and will continue to do so." » Lizzie, Junk in Our Trunk Unflinching patience "I could not have hoped for a better completed site in my dreams! Arianne guided me through every step of the process, answering my absurd questions with unflinching patience even when I was annoying even myself with my lack of knowledge! She calmly and quickly helped me, referred me, or fixed whatever it was I was "doing." Truly, I knew from seeing the other projects the very first day I came to her that my website, even on my tight budget, was going to blow me away and it has. Now I remember as I surfed through the links and finished sites in the gallery how stoked I was to see some names and products I had actually seen out on the web before! All I can say is thank you thank you, Arianne! I will come back to you to help me when never felt better blows up and I have to redo and supersize everything :) !" » Jen, Never Felt Better One of the best business decisions I've made "When I decided to launch my own site, I spent hours on-line bookmarking other sites I found appealing. I realized at a certain point that several of the sites in my 'top 20' were designed by Aeolidia. Approaching Arianne to work on my site was one of the best business decisions I've made. Throughout the entire process of building the site, Arianne was professional, good-natured and patient to a fault. I needed a lot of hand-holding, having never been through the process of pulling a site together and Arianne assisted me in selecting a shopping cart, web host service, email mailing list management service. Aeolidia has a fantastic client/project management software that kept me constantly informed of deadline, schedules and to-do lists. I am thrilled with our end result and cannot recommend Arianne and Aeolidia highly enough." » Robert Mahar, Mahar Drygoods Better than I ever imagined! "All I can say is WOW! When I first contacted Arianne, I wasn't really sure about what I wanted to do as far as the design concept. I pretty much let her work her magic giving her a few ideas and she really brought Pancake Meow to life! It's better than I ever imagined! I am not a computer savvy person at all and Arianne was always super helpful and patient in answering my MANY questions in a language I could understand and in a timely fashion! I really have no idea how she does it! All of the sites that she designs are always beautiful and have their own individual style! I'd work with her again in a minute! Thank you Arianne!!! :D" » Leslie, Pancake Meow Exceeded my expectations "Arianne of Aeolidia Design came highly recommended to me by fellow indie businesses. She exceeded my expectations by offering her clients an on-line communication portal specifically to discuss and work out all site issues. In addition, her flexibility, responsiveness, quality of work, and web design know-how made me confident that I'd end up with a great site. Today, I've been getting lots of compliments on the quality and design of the Feisty Elle shop and I know that's all got to do with Arianne. Aeolidia Design is worth every penny." » Leslie, Feisty Elle Constant guidance and support "Absolutely amazing! Arianne is simply one of the most amazing people I have ever worked with. She is: detail oriented, extremely organized, professional, patient, and seems to be online 24/7. Needless to say, I am thrilled with how my site has turned out and can't wait to use it to its fullest potential. There is no way that the site would have turned out the way it did if it wasn't for Arianne's expertise. With her constant guidance and support, I am now starting to feel pretty confident that I may actually be able to maintain the site myself. I have no background in HTML and am so thrilled to have found someone so pleasant to work with. Like my husband says: 'Arianne rocks!'" » Jennifer, Turtle Papers No words to describe "Arianne is so fantastic, there are no words to describe it. She's also amazingly patient with busy and computer-knowledge-impaired folks like me!" » Erin, Anatomy of a Skirt Organized, prompt and patient "When I first decided to start a website I actually considered doing it myself and as I started doing more research I quickly realized that would not be a good idea! I have a design background, but computers and html coding are a whole other story. I came across Arianne’s name on an online forum and was very excited when I visited her site. The fact that she has done so much work with independent businesses and artists was an instant selling point for me. From my first email until the end Arianne has been completely professional. She is well organized, prompt and patient - always making sure you're happy with every aspect of your site. I have already recommended her to several friends and will continue to do so. Thanks Arianne!" » Sandy, Adorn Look no further "Our experience with Aeolidia has been phenomenal. We were spoiled by their excellent service, professionalism, quality, and speed. They provided everything we asked for and more. Whenever we had a question, it was answered promptly. They were also patient during the process. They also provided many easy-to-follow instructional tutorials about how to manage our e-commerce site, make changes, updates, etc. It's clear that they know what they're doing, and they're doing it well. I couldn't recommend them more strongly. And as if that weren't enough, their rates are very reasonable (people have seen our website and suspected that we spent much more than we did). I would recommend that you look no further and that you contact them immediately." » Duane + Andrea MacKay, Herb + Ginger A million times better "I could not have asked for a better web design experience. From everything I had heard, I already knew that Arianne would be courteous, professional, and hardworking with flawless attention to detail. What I wasn't sure about was if she was going to be able to "get me" and be able to design something that fit with my aesthetic. It turned out that I had no reason to worry! After giving her some vague description of what I wanted, Arianne, along with the fabulous Jen Corace, came back with a design that was a million times better than I could ever have expected. I am so happy I made the choice to go with Aeolidia Design- it was worth every penny!" » Wendy Aracich, Circle Circle Dot Dot I can't believe it's mine "I had a pretty bad experience with my previous web designer's customer service, so when I approached Arianne to redesign my site and install a Zen Cart I was understandably nervous. I knew what I wanted in my mind, but I thought getting it onto a website was going to be difficult. I'm fairly computer savvy but I don't have any free time to do a lot of troubleshooting on my own. As soon as I saw the first mock up from Shoshanna all my fears were put to rest. The design was exactly as I envisioned... It's so gorgeous and unique I can't believe it's mine! The customer service was great. Anytime I had a question Shoshanna would reply that day (nicely!) or let me know when she could answer my questions. I had some past experience with OS Commerce and the Zen Cart is similar, so setting up my pages was a snap and the tutorials are easy to understand. Shoshanna and Arianne also helped get my hosting, email, SSL and credit card system set up so I didn't feel abandoned or stressed having to troubleshoot things myself. I am so glad I took the plunge and contacted Aeolidia! It's gorgeous thanks so much!" » Rosemary Thornton, Rosemary Beads Impressed with the customer service, creativity and knowledge "Being a complete newbie when it comes to all things html, I had no idea what to expect as far as creating an on-line business. As luck would have it, Arianne was able to take on my website. Phew! I am extremely happy with the whole experience. Arianne was very patient and never condescending when I didn't understand something. There were times I would e-mail questions late at night and I would receive a prompt reply. Does she sleep? I am very impressed with the customer service, creativity and knowledge the Aeolidia team brought to my project. I would recommend Aeolidia to anyone who needs work done on websites, business cards or banners. They do it all, and they do it all well!" » Tricie Chua, Zoomzawear I can now maintain my own site! "Being a designer myself, I know how hard it is to work with another designer. I am a perfectionist (and sometimes can be pretty fussy!!) I wanted my website to have a pure & simple visual impact in addition to all sorts of fancy shopping functions. Thanks to my little angel, Arianne! She made my dream come true! I was stunned by how efficiently Arianne had put together my site. Whenever I had a question, she would always reply promptly with very detailed directions for me to follow through. (I don't think she ever sleeps!!) I loved the tutorial/support site she put together for her clients. It is so well organized and easy to look for answers. I knew nothing about HTML before and hey!... I can now maintain my own site!! It was a real pleasure to work with Aeolidia. I love my beautiful site." » Mimie Wong, mi SPA I am so thankful "I am so thankful that I was able to be one of Aeolidia's clients. Arianne has been nothing but professional, prompt and knowledgeable from the very beginning. She is always right there when I have a question or when I need help. She consistently goes above and beyond what I expect and works really hard to make things happen when I need them to. I really can't imagine a better company to work with!" » Georgia Hadley, Adorneya I'm practically speechless "Everything is perfect!! Thank you sooooo much for all of your hard work. I appreciate all of your time and everything you've done for me. I'm practically speechless I'm just so happy with the way everything turned out. I honestly couldn't be happier with the logos, the service and last but not least, working with you and Teresa!! You are both total sweethearts and it was an honor and a pleasure working with the two of you. I had a dream of what I wanted my Logos to look like, and with Teresa's amazing artistic intuition, and creativity, she captured exactly what I've always dreamed of, plus a whole lot more! I'm almost sad that everything is finished and I won't be getting anymore exciting emails from you about the status of my logos. haha! You will most definitely have my business again when I'm ready to re-vamp my whole site!! Thank You Arianne and Teresa from the bottom of my heart" » Jess Vernon, Snail Mail Creations You will be impressed "Working with Arianne has been an incredibly wonderful experience. I can not begin to say enough positive things about her and my experience in working with her. I am very impressed with her professionalism, knowledge, creative talent and most of all patience and customer service. Right at the beginning of the design process it became apparent that what I was describing and envisioning did not match my company name, a name that I didn’t like much any more anyway. Arianne gently suggested that if I wanted to change my name now would be a great time. She then went on to help me to not only create an awesome web site but also a new logo and business cards to match. I was amazed that she completed not only the web site but the logo and the business cards without going over her original estimate. I still don’t know how she squeezed it all in. I always knew what her timetable on my project was because she uses a great project manager program with to-do lists and timelines. I liked being able to see where the project was at with out having to ask. It helped me to plan ahead as well. She answered all my e-mails promptly, with full, easy to understand explanations. A few times I received answers in less than a few minutes and on the weekend too! I love, love, love my new site, logo and business cards. I highly recommend Arianne and Aeolidia. You will be impressed, I sure was." » Ellen, Elea Designs Stress-free experience "Creative. Professional. Super easy to work with. There are a million words to describe how fantastic my experience with Arianne and Aeolidia has been. They took my "ho-hum" site and turned it into something that is not only beautiful visually, but beautiful in its ease of use. Arianne came up with some amazing features that I really love, like the pictures of the bags in the upper navigation bar, and the incredible swatch chart that is so easy to update! Arianne is always willing to try something for you, whether it's a new background or layout or logo, it really makes the whole experience so stress free. I now have a site I love, that makes life easier for me and my customers! If you're considering getting any design or programming work done, I highly recommend Aeolidia. You will not be disappointed!" » Beth, Katie Beane My dreams quickly became a reality "I am amazed at the quality & professionalism of Arianne's work. I have two websites, so I have experienced 2 different builders and Arianne's work is far superior to the other company I worked with and she is very affordable too! I was astonished when I received the bill! I have complete control of my new site & Arianne made it so easy to learn what I needed to know to maintain it! My dreams quickly became a reality with Arianne's help, and she is very patient with those of us who are technologically challenged! :D She's the best!" » Mariah DeMarco, Three Snails Made my dream come true "Arianne is a genius! She took a visual idea that I had and made a dream (my dream) come true. She was right on the money when she showed me the end result for my website. I love how she understood what I needed and wanted. She is extremely generous with the updating of TuffCooki.com; in the near future I am going to ask her to set me up with a shopping cart. I love working with you, Arianne. Keep up the great work!" » Monica Kennedy, TuffCooki v2 Full of heart and genuinely cares "I thank my lucky stars I came across Aeolidia and found Arianne! I knew this working relationship was going to be great from the moment I deciphered what "Aeolidia" meant. I wanted to work with someone who was quirky, artistic, professional, detail-oriented and full of good spirit. I had a specific vision but wasn't able to bring it to life. The rest is history. It was a super swell working relationship from beginning to end. All my questions were answered promptly and in utter detail. Arianne is full of heart and genuinely cares about her clients. A life's supply of stationery would not be enough to express how grateful I am to Arianne for bringing my vision to life." » Jeanne, Three Paper Pigs I now have a site that is incredibly easy to update "Working with Arianne has been amazing. She patiently listened to my every request, and give me very thorough explanations of the 'ins and outs' of how it would work so I could make a more informed decision. She also offered additional ideas that I wouldn't have thought of that would make my site easier to navigate and be more user-friendly. I love that I now have a site that is incredibly easy to update, a simple way to manage all my images and still be able to customize it to my liking whenever I want to. Plus, now my site is even more 'searchable' for the search engines, and I'm getting hits on things that I never did before. Arianne rocks." » Crystalyn, Crystalyn Kae Accessories Sticklers for quality "Our band is that terrible combination of being both terrible control freaks, sticklers for quality... AND dirt poor (not even good dirt, at that. Arianne deftly worked within our very limited budget to create the perfect site for our specific aesthetic. Any superlative you favor describes her and her work." » Jon Visger, Mason Proper Process clearly outlined "Arianne is fantastic to work with. When I initially contacted her, she sent me several info-filled emails answering all my questions about costs, the process, what to expect...etc. I knew from day 1 what to expect throughout the whole process because it was clearly outlined for me. When it came time for design, Arianne was very open to listening to my likes and dislikes and came up with several versions for me to consider--different colors and things like that. I felt bad asking "Can I see this design but with a white background" and stuff like that--no problem for Arianne! She was very accommodating! Once the design was nailed down, she integrated the cart and got that all set up. I always knew when I could expect the different phases to be completed because she uses this great project manager thing with everything listed and a timeline. I loved that! Really great tool for her customers. Although she was very busy with additional clients, I swear the whole time, I felt like I was the only one. Emails & questions were always answered promptly, and my site was completed pretty darn quickly, IMO. And it was exactly as I had envisioned. (Which is no small feat considering I have a hard time communicating what I want something to look like!)" » Donna Ferguson, One Little Monkey It truly is beautiful "i just want to say thank you for all the time and hard work you've put into building my website! it truly is beautiful! you are the best! =)" » Joanna, Candlelight Did not move on until I was comfortable "Arianne is one of the most amazing people I have ever had the pleasure of working with! She completely walked me through the whole process and patiently explained how to use everything. I had E-mailed her a few times (a dozen or more) to go over things and she made sure I got it and put it in the simplest terms. We did not move on until I was comfortable with the step we were on. This was huge for me, since I was so unsavvy with computers. You should see me now, thanks to Arianne! I am absolutely over the moon with how my site came out! It is clean and chic and a true reflection of everything I dreamed of when I purchased the .com. I could go on and on about how wonderful she is, but I am sure many more to come will give a true testimonial to this. Thank you for making my site a piece of cake to use. I still can't believe how much I love the look of it. I am really picky and I cannot say enough good things about Aeolidia!" » Amy Jagminas, Wickedly Chic Creative solutions to any problem "Working with Arianne has been wonderful experience. I love my site. Throughout the designing process, I have been continually impressed with Arianne's professionalism, intelligence, talent and patience. I am very particular and picky about what I wanted for my site. I emailed her many, many times with questions, suggestions, ideas, problems and every time she answered me quickly, found creative solutions to any problem and was a pleasure to work with. I have received so many compliments about my site. Already, I have other projects that I am working on with Arianne. It is money well spent. I am very pleased to recommend Arianne. If you're thinking about hiring her, do it! You won't be disappointed." » Leigh Jackson, Noisy Dog Studio Quick, efficient and very sharp "Arianne was great to work with. Quick, efficient and very sharp. She has a great eye for detail and kept with me until I was ready to launch, making sure everything was good. She kept close attention to my minimal budget and still accomplished my needs. My site is clean, easy to use, and everything else I wanted! I know if I need assistance or work in the future she will be there. Thank you Arianne!" » Renaye, Brown Bag An unbelievable, talented group of individuals "I just wanted to let you know that I am SO in love with my website. Shoshanna did such a remarkable job on the site and I just can't stop admiring it. I have received so many compliments on the site and can't wait to start marketing it. Shoshanna has been such a pleasure to work with and I just can't get over how talented, knowledgeable, sweet, patient and attentive (I could go on and on!) she is. I am extremely impressed with your company and I will tell everyone I know that they should be using Aeolidia for their web design. You are all an unbelievable, talented group of individuals and you've made my dream of having my own website a reality!! Thank you for everything!" » Leigh-Ann Kline, Leigh-Ann Kline Handbags A tiny budget and a big idea "Working with Arianne & Aimee Ray on my website was a true pleasure. I came to her with a tiny budget and a big idea, and she was willing to work with me and give me ideas I had never thought of. Her patience in answering all my little questions and her assistance was truly amazing. She does everything she can to make sure your site will turn out just perfect, and she really follows through! E-mails are answered promptly and all questions are answered and explained thoroughly. When we hit a bump in the design process, Arianne just offered up several solutions right away, which worked out wonderfully. A great tutorial was created just for me to help me manage my site. She is extremely gifted in web design and I consider myself lucky to have been able to work with such a talented woman." » Elizabeth Helmich, Counting Sheep Studio The whole process was easy and fun "My first experience with a website designer was awful. Arianne changed all that. There ARE still people out there that take great pride in what they do and are honestly committed to customer satisfaction. She's very professional, organized, detailed, patient, and knowledgeable. Her communication skills are awesome. 99% of my emails were answered the same day. I can't say enough great things about her and her wonderful attitude. The whole process was easy and fun. So much fun I'm having her design our family website. Oh and I can't forget...her pricing is very very reasonable!" » Janina, Peony Patch Extremely patient and client-oriented "It was super easy and pleasant working with Arianne, without me having a firm idea of a concept I wanted to work with, Arianne offered me several concepts for me to pick from and made my website look very cute and at the same time my website is easy to navigate and shop. She took the time to answer the many questions I had, and thoroughly explained how the site worked and how I could input the products myself, she even created a manual, which is a great help for me!! It is very rare these days to find a professional who delivers a quality product or project within the budget (in my case even under my already very limited budget) and who is extremely patient and client--oriented without charging you an arm and a leg. I would highly recommend her and I am currently going to have her create my business cards and banners." » Florence van den Bergh, Omnibella So much more than I was expecting "It's so much more than I was expecting! I'm really, really happy with every aspect. I'm amazed that you got it together so quickly, too...I know you've been busy (understatement) lately. I think you're a machine. Really, thanks very much...even if I had the skills to do my own site, I couldn't have come up with anything I like more. And thanks, too, for the massive tutorial site! I'm looking forward to getting it all figured out. Yay!" » Sarah, The Star City Sound My wildest website design dreams come true "Arianne made my wildest website design dreams come true! I had been hoping & wishing for my own site for about a year when I noticed that practically all of my favorite sites had been designed by Arianne. So, I contacted her with my oh-so-vague notion of what I thought I'd like in a website. Her legendary powers kicked in, and she worked her magic to help me create a vision of exactly what it was that I wanted and needed for my website. She guided me in taking my initial sad little vision to a whole new level, and all for an extremely reasonable price! To complicate matters, I know exactly zero about html coding and shopping cart systems... yet Arianne was able to work around all that and create a site that even I could maintain with relative ease, despite my vast ineptitude for all things technological. She was patient and professional throughout the process, and even created a logo banner and business cards for me in record time! Arianne has amazing skills, and I highly recommend her services to everyone. " » Nevada Gutierrez, Frosty Lime Kind, patient, professional "As soon as I realized that the most appealing sites I had visited featured a little "site by Aeolidia" logo, I knew that she was the one for me. From day one she has been kind, patient, professional and full of tips and suggestions for the site as well as the business. I am thrilled with the entire experience and just cannot stop looking at my site and reveling in all its glory. She is a peach of a girl with a true gift and I'm honored to be a part of her oustanding work." » Kristen Townsend, Mood Swing 100% pleased "Arianne has created and made over many of the sites I enjoy visiting. I've always thought they looked very professionally done, but also kept that fun feel to them. From the second I approached her about doing my site for me, she was super nice and willing to work with my HTML challenged self. She kept me posted with every step and made sure I loved everything before going live. I'm 100% pleased with my experience with Aeolidia Web Design and would (and do!) recommend Arianne to anyone with ideas swimming in their heads, but no clue how to get them online." » Lauren, James in May Tricks up her sleeve "Working with Arianne was such a great experience! She is very talented, she has so many tricks up her sleeve! I like that she can make your vision come to life and much more! If you are stuck with a very low budget and want a great site Arianne can do it!! I can not wait to work with her again!! She is just the greatest!! Thanks Arianne!" » Joshua Rease, JLR Fashions Very functional and easy to update "Arianne has been a joy to work with. I went into this, not really sure what I wanted. The whole time Arianne was very understanding, and helped me know more so what I wanted. She made sure it looked great and was very functional and easy to update. My site came out better than I could have imagined thanks to the help of everyone at aeolidia.com!" » Cedar, Pink Curtains Completely patient and receptive "I was wary of turning my website over to someone else, but now I'm happy that I did. Arianne did a fabulous job, and I've received numerous compliments about my new site. Even though I had a lot of nitpicky things about the site and changed my mind a lot, Arianne was completely patient and receptive throughout the whole thing. Not only is she a pleasure to work with, but she is an immensely talented designer and coder as well. I highly recommend Aeolidia Design! Now I just need to make my products worthy of such a lovely website." » Sugene, All This is Mine Every penny was well-invested "I'm more than happy with the site. Everything is so "neat." You created a "clean" well-organized site, where what I need has been set up. I do understand every single aspect of the site, even though I'm not a webdesigner. When I need to add something it's pretty simple. This is the way it should be, am I right? :) » Rosie, Roots of Art Orders have been coming in non-stop "The Aeolidia design team has done wonders for my handbag business! Ever since my site went live, the orders have been coming in non-stop. Although I had a website before, I never had this many orders from new customers and I can only attribute it to the way Aeolidia created my site to be super user friendly and professional looking. The ease of use gives my customers the assurance that their order will be handled in a safe, secure, and business-like manner. I couldn't ask for a better web designer. She has made my life so much easier. Before I hired her, I wasted a lot of time constantly updating and changing the look of my site because it wasn't what I wanted. Now I can focus on the sewing aspect of my business, not the web design. Arianne was extremely helpful throughout the entire process and answered any and all of my questions promptly. She also had tons of cool ideas and made dozens of suggestions to improve my site. She was constantly trying to find new and better ways to give me exactly what I wanted and needed for a successful e-commerce site. She didn't stop until I was completely satisfied. Thanks Aeolidia!" » mandy b., mandy b. bags Best business decision I have made "Arianne is incredible! I could not be more satisfied with the experience of working with her from start to finish on my site. She took a little idea for a logo that had been floating around my head and brought it to fruition creating exactly what I had in mind. Then, she put together a site that is very functional and user friendly as well as super cute. I have gotten endless compliments on the site and logo design and she did all of this for the most reasonable price. I cannot begin to imagine the hours I would have wasted trying to throw together a home made, unprofessional site myself. Having Arianne to design my site and logo is by far the best business decision I have made." » Emily Hardeman, Kirsch Blossom Made my dream come true "Arianne is a genius! She took a visual idea that I had and made a dream (my dream) come true. She was right on the money when she showed me the end result for my website. I love how she understood what I needed and wanted. She is extremely generous with the updating of TuffCooki.com; in the near future I am going to ask her to set me up with a shopping cart. I love working with you, Arianne. Keep up the great work!" » Monica Kennedy, TuffCooki Super-hot makeover "Because of Arianne over at Aeolidia Design, Quelyn on Ice is no longer the ugliest little blog in the South. Quelyn got a much needed makeover and is now looking super-hot. So hot, in fact, her new found good looks will surely increase site visits making Quelyn on Ice an online floozy of sorts. Arianne did a great job capturing the feel I was going for and I thank her for not only her time, but also her vision. Thanks, Arianne!" » Monique, Quelyn on Ice Efficiency and generosity "I had been looking for a web designer to fit my needs for a long while, and was so pleased to have found Arianne of Aeolidia. Arianne's enthusiasm and friendly personality made me feel comfortable from the start, and she was such a great pleasure to work with. It was a challenge to describe the look I wanted for Allymoon, but Arianne came up with a perfect website to highlight the style and feel of my designs. Throughout the design process, Arianne was professional, responsive, efficient, patient, and mindful of all the details. It is such a rarity to receive good service nowadays, so I was impressed with Arianne's efficiency and generosity with her time and effort in getting my website done within a short time frame, and at a very affordable budget. Allymoon received many compliments, and I have Arianne to thank for that. She is simply an outstanding person to work with!!" » Jacinta, Allymoon Generous support towards independent businesses "Not only is Arianne a talented and creative web designer, but loyal to her customers! When I switched web hosts for my new design I found myself completely lost and technically disabled. Nevertheless, Arianne was there right away helping me out and providing me with tutorials. Yet what is remarkable about Arianne is her generous support towards independent businesses and artists on the world wide web. Her creativity and imagination allowed her to use the few ideas I had and transform them into the professional store I have now. Arianne's out going personality and professional loyalty allows her to connect personally with her customers giving me complete confidence and trust in the design process. Never before have I recieved such excellent services!" » Stephanie Rasmussen, Ophelia Right on the money "Arianne is the best! I knew what I wanted for Tintmag.com and wasn't exactly sure how to put it into words, but somehow Arianne designed the site and was right on the money! She was very helpful, affordable, and I just feel so blessed that I found Aeolidia.com on the web. I was very comfortable with the design process, and she offered helpful suggestions that I otherwise would have been clueless about. In the end, the design exceeded my expectations on so many levels! I plan to hire Arianne for future projects, and I'd recommend her to anyone in need of innovative design services." » Margarita Gaines, Tint Helpful and creative "I created a layout for NexStitch, my online business, and asked Arianne if she could code it for me. Throughout the process, she offered many helpful and creative suggestions for little "extras" which were in addition to the concept I had laid out. She came up with the jazziest scroll bar for my main page; it slides so gracefully! She also created some poppy mouseovers for the links at the top of each page, as well as those on the main pattern page. In addition, she created a contact page with a mail form and a mailing list option, and a favicon for when people bookmark my site. Lastly, she created a PayPal shopping cart for my customers which makes my life so much easier. When I look at other sites in my field, I can't help but think that mine stands out from the sea of software-generated, boring eCommerce pages. Overall, Arianne was a pleasure to work with. She made the process of coding my site as smooth as possible. Thanks Arianne!" » Amie Hirtes, NexStitch Fast and helpful "after deciding to purchase the cartkeeper program, i knew i was in over my head. thanks to recommendations from some other online friends, i decided arianne was the designer for me! i gave her the images and explained the look and feel i was going for. i was not only super impressed she captured it perfectly, but how fast and helpful she was! arianne was so easy to work with, so nice, so efficient, so super-duperly awesome!! once the re-design went into action my website traffic has doubled, and my sales picked up significantly. no doubt in my mind that arianne's terrific work on making my site look professional and fun is a huge part of it!" » Teresa Levy, Sewing Stars Professional yet personable "Arianne's redesign of the Sampler site is almost certainly responsible for the project's surge in popularity. I mean, seriously, look at the site - it totally kicks ass. It's professional yet personable and has completely and accurately captured the spirit of the project. I couldn't be happier with the design, and I couldn't be happier with Arianne's efforts! Not only has her maintenance of the site been incredibly prompt and exactly what I ask for, but she has an amazing way of anticipating what needs to be done and just how it should be done. Her input has been a major determining factor in the way I think about my business!" » Marie Kare, The Sampler Best sites and great service "When in need of a new website for my business, I knew exactly where to go. I've been a fan of Aeolidia websites for a long time, so I expected a professional, perfect website. I got that (and more), but what I didn't expect was how wonderful the experience of working with Arianne was going to be. It was a total pleasure from beginning to end. She was very responsive and took a great deal of care into making sure I was satisfied. Now I get compliments on my site all the time, but it's because of how great the service was that I recommend her to everyone I know in need of a new website, and will continue to do so in the future. Best sites and great service... doesn't get any better than that." » Joe Cenker, Lo-Fi with Love Absolute coding genius!!! "arianne is an absolute coding genius!!! :D she was able to take janice's twee lil' graphics of clouds and daisies and retro stripes and whip it all up into this amazing website (and of course, copacetic zine.com too)! the graceful site navigation, the adorable eye-pleasing page layouts, and the implementation of rad features like our new wish list and customer log-in? yup, all thanks to arianne! there isn't anything on a website that this girl can't do!" » Janice Headley, Copacetique All of my favourite websites "I once spent a restless, allergy induced cough and sneeze filled night in Arianne's guest bedroom and sometimes think that's why she's been so good to me, but it's more than likely because she's a super kind and utterly talented person. Seriously, she has designed pretty much all of my favourite websites out there and mine as well!" » Kyle Bjornson, Humblebee Recordings
