"Working with Aeolidia was such a pleasure! Having an online shop created can be a very intimidating process, but Chris and Arianne have such an incredibly organized system when working on their projects- seriously, seamless from start to finish. Arianne created the most stunning page layout for my shop, that I stare at...sort of a lot! My shop is easy to navigate for my customers, the design is just lovely, and I get so many compliments on the site. They really went above and beyond to create exactly what I wanted, and I couldn't be happier with my shop, or more excited about the future of my business! Thank you SO much guys!"

DeEtta's Bakery

DeEtta's Bakery
I designed a logo and identity package for DeEtta's bakery, as well as business cards and stickers for packaging. The goal was to capture the warm, old-fashioned look of a simple, tasty bakery.

Flora Bora

Flora Bora
Aeolidia's first travel/resort site! Not our usual project, but somehow it fits with us just right. I'd love to stay there, and we had a lot of fun capturing a retro nature theme.

Denise Ann Holmes did a great watercolor scene for Karen, as well as an amazing yurt logo and some sweet forest friends to sprinkle through the site.

I designed a vintage-look travel poster and other promotional items.

We set this site up with Wordpress and it includes a blog and photo gallery. Karen is able to take reservations directly from her site, and keep all of her information up to date.

The Fabric Loft

The Fabric Loft

"I just wanted to let you and the rest of the team know that it has been a real pleasure working with Aeolidia. I had been quite impressed right from the beginning on how you work and how everything is organised. I truly believe that taking the decision of working with you has been the best ever business decision that I have made.

It has been an incredible steep learning curve for me, not only on the technical side of the website, but I have also learned a lot from you and your team on how to deal with different situations, customer service, thinking a bit out of the box, looking at things from different points of view, etc. All your suggestions were spot on! I am very glad that you suggested Arian Armstrong to work with the logo and illustrations. It was an excellent start of the project!"

I'm very happy!"

Fernworks

Fernworks

As I was searching for designers to help me create my website, I pored through dozens of small business, retail, indie craft, and artist sites for ideas. I frequently noticed a link to "Aeolidia" at the bottom of sites I liked, so I decided to enlist their help. It was such a great decision!

Arianne and Chris were so great to work with! Entering into the process, I felt so overwhelmed, unknowledgeable, and unsure that I would be able to manage a site and shop by myself. My web "know-how" was always pretty limited, but that has all changed! At every step of the way, they answered all of my questions so thoroughly and patiently, even the "dumb" or repetitive ones. I feel so much more savvy now. They are total pros and so organized and creative. They've created such a beautiful site for me that really captures the essence of Fernworks. I'm already getting tons of compliments on it.

I am so happy with my new shop! The Aeolidia folks are so talented, and I'd recommend them to anyone!

Le Neko Noir

Le Neko Noir

"Aeolidia is a true gem. I can honestly say that Arianne and Chris are the most talented people I've met.

When I came to Aeolidia, I had an idea but no clear vision. Their organization, professionalism, experience and guidance was crucial in getting my dream and my visions for my shop completed. They were able to take my incoherent thoughts, organize them into manageable chunks and translate them into something meaningful. Best of all they worked at whatever pace I needed, and they explained everything clearly.

Leslie Dallion, who worked on my logo and all the other illustrations for my website did a fabulous job of taking my ideas and turning them into something better than I had ever hoped for.

I'm so proud and honored to have worked with Aeolidia, and would highly recommend them for your next project. They really have their fingers on the pulse. "

"It is like my birthday everyday! Aeolidia has given me the best present - an amazing website! I could not be more happier with Arianne and her wonderful team at Aeolidia! They are such a pleasure to work with; they answered all my questions fast and with lots of information, they know what they are doing and they do a good job, and they can design and program websites like no other! Thank you Aeolidia!!!"

I Heart Guts

I Heart Guts

"Aeolidia has really big brains and a lot of heart -- that's why we so enjoyed working with them. Arianne and Chris will rock your world with their smarts, design talent, kindness and patience. The Aeolidia team is free from the bad art and exasperated attitude that often accompany really good, robust, solid coding. They know it all without being know-it-alls, and will bust their butts to get the job done right.

You guys are the sweetest. It truly was a pleasure working with you, and I so appreciate how much more you two brought to the site than I ever imagined possible. Thank you for making magic happen! I am always amazed and impressed that you took my annoying problems and saw them as fun challenges and learning experiences instead of giant pains in the ass."

-- Wendy Bryan

Orange & Blossom

Orange & Blossom

"Before hiring Aeolidia, I did a great deal of research, hoping to find just the right fit to design my logo and site. I found big firms that were slick and impersonal and one-person companies that just didn't have the vision or professionalism I was looking for.

I had a great feeling about Aeolidia as soon as I found them, and even before I made my final decision, Arianne was already quick to answer my questions and provide honest guidance about our online wedding boutique. I learned later that they have a fantastic reputation to boot.

I could not have made a better choice! Leslie Saito worked tirelessly on our beautiful logo--we have received great response to the site from our logo alone. She was able to capture the vintage-modern look we had in mind perfectly.

Arianne and Chris were amazing partners to have as the site came together quickly and before my eyes. Their patience, skill, and vision were essential to both the visual and technical sides of our brand. They listened & responded quickly and genuinely at every turn, and every time I visit the site I am grateful to them for every last wonderful detail. It is incredibly easy for me to add and update content and images, too.

It can be nerve wracking to find the ideal website designer--I can assure you they never disappointed me once. I would recommend them to any small or mid-size creative business, and will return to them for anything I need going forward."

You and your team did such a great job and have been so great to work with. THANK YOU!"

"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."

"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."

"A communicative, deadline-conscious, and affordable web designer is a rare gem, and for these reasons (and more) we felt extremely lucky to have found Arianne. From start to finish she was an adept communicator, effectively drawing out our vision and needs through questionnaires and email dialogue before we got started. She provided clear explanations at every stage, laid out all options in detail to help us make decisions, and was very patient and prompt in answering our many questions. Arianne was also very flexible and accommodated our changing deadlines & needs throughout.

The web design was facilitated through fancy (yet user friendly) project management software which kept us on top of our responsibilities and aware of what was going on behind the scenes. We were really impressed by how organized and streamlined the entire process was. Now that the site is up and running we receive loads of praise on how organized and easy to navigate it is, not to mention its good looks!

Thanks to the Aeolidia team for making our vision a reality."

"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."

"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. "

"I highly recommend anyone considering design to use Aeolidia for their needs. Arianne answered my questions promptly and kept me up to date all the time. She designed my business cards and they were everything I imagined and so much more. I loved working with Aimee for my logo design - everyone just ADORES my logo and I always get so many compliments. The best part is, clients often tell me my business seems so fun and sophisticated. That was exactly what I wanted my logo to say.

Thanks so much Arianne and Aimee for your talents and for creating such great artwork for Bella Pop! "

Pequitobun

"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!"

"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."

"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!"

I absolutely love the website and everyone comments on how cute the design is - the website is perfect and just what I wanted.

I highly recommend Aeolidia Design and will definitely be working with them in the future."

Daniele Young created the logo for Sunshine Yarns (based on Dani's original sun/yarn ball idea), and we scattered yarn balls all over the site.

Let's Explore

Let's Explore

"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!"

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.

Figs & Ginger

Figs & Ginger

"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!"

"I would (and frequently do) recommend Aeolidia to anyone looking for an elegant and professional custom website. Arianne, Chris and Shoshanna are not only skilled and knowledgeable technicians but also patient and generous teachers who care about equipping small businesses and creative individuals with the tools and information to market and sell online. I am supremely satisfied with the distinctive-looking and easy-to-manage website Arianne designed for Ach Ach Liebling as I am with all the updates, changes and auxiliary work Aeolidia has done for me since then. Choosing Aeolidia was a great decision for my business and is an incredible value every time. Ach Ach Liebling has truly been enhanced by Aeolidia's beautiful and attentive work."

Art School Dropout

Art School Dropout
Jessee had an existing Zen Cart site that needed some work, so I upgraded it to the latest version, installed some add-ons to make working in the admin easier, and did a redesign.

Jessee drew flowers that matched some of the elements she uses in her jewelry and I used these to come up with a new logo and matching site design. Now her images load more quickly (thanks to Image Handler), it's easier to see what she has, and she has a way to feature events and other news from the main page.

"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!"

"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!"

"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!"

"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!"

One Good Bumblebee v2

One Good Bumblebee v2

"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."

Pen & Parchment v2

Pen & Parchment v2
This is a redesign of Carrie's site. This time we started from scratch for the redesign, creating a new logo, color scheme, and layout.

The redesign keeps the subcategory menu that shows when you hover over each category. Carrie has a lot of content on her site, so this time we concentrated on organization, making it clear and easy for her customers to find all the info we need. We took her information pages and divided them into categories in the footer, grouped the account links and search tools in one area, and made some space for links to featured designer pages.

"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!""

EggbabyInk
Tracey designs her own cards and had been working on a site design for her own website. She sent me her design and we both worked on it together to get it to work well with CKGold, to make it user-friendly and to give it a fun, unique feel.

We worked on making the navigation simple for customers, giving them the choice between shopping by occasion or by type of stationery. The main page shows an image for each shop category, which when moused over shows an example of a card in that category.

We also made it easy for wholesalers to request more info and apply for an account to shop on the site at a discounted rate (and a minimum order amount!).

Sacred Kitsch Studio

Sacred Kitsch Studio
The Sacred Kitsch Studio shop has a ton of items for sale, and we needed to set it up to be as simple to find things and purchase them as possible.

We used CKGold to run the shop, and items can be purchased directly from the category page, rather than having that extra click to the item page. The item listings are very descriptive about the quantity you're ordering (price per sheet, per set, per each, etc.) and Laura is able to add larger detail images when needed.

We set up PHPList to manage her mailing list and created a newsletter design using her logo.

Illustrations and logos based on retro tattoos were drawn by Teresa Levy and give the site a punky, fun feel.

DeMarco Designs
Mariah and I spent a lot of time customizing CKGold to make her dream website! Mariah is one of our artists as well as a crafter herself.

We set up custom categories in CKGold to display galleries of her custom work, and to accommodate stationery subscriptions.

We set up a form for potential wholesalers to contact Mariah through and we also set up a "fun stuff" page that currently showcases Mariah's paper dolls to download and print.

The header of the site is animated to show twinkling stars and a singing bird.

Oh, and we used Wordpress to create a matching blog!

"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!"

Little Mouse Vintage

Little Mouse Vintage
The Little Mouse Vintage site uses CKGold, and the design was based on a custom illustration by Melissa Contreras. Ann wanted a soft vintage feel, so I created a pretty logo using the color scheme from the illustration, and the design work went very smoothly.

She wanted her shop to be very simple, so we didn't include any of the user login features, which meant the coding went quickly and smoothly as well.

The dot e dot site sells baby slings and carriers. Daniele Young did the lovely illustrations for this site.

We used Zen Cart's language and currency features to allow customers to customize the site based on their preferences. All of the pages of the site are translated into Norwegian and English, and you can switch by clicking your flag from any page on the site. Prices can be converted from Norwegian kroner to Euros or US dollars.

We set up an automatic fabric gallery and a way for Elin to create as many pop up galleries as she'd like. She can also set up and change out as many randomly rotating images as she'd like on the main page.

"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."
