Announcement Bykatedesigns is alive and well and operating as a home business in beautiful Manchester, Vermont!

I joined joined Etsy in 2009, and have recently decided to make it my passion! I have a degree in Art History, from Wheaton College in MA, and studied fine art at The School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. I love to paint in oil and watercolor, especially landscapes, seascapes and gardens. Many of my greeting card designs are inspirations from my travels to Italy, France, North Africa, Bermuda and the good old USA, especially Cape Cod and Newport, Rhode Island.

My notecard designs come from my original oil paintings and watercolors. During the holidays I sell hand painted ornaments on wood tree slices, which were very popular online and in stores this past season!

Look for new designs in greeting cards, coastal cards. floral notecards and travel scenes, plus some old standby's. Coming soon, prints of all designs! Thanks for taking a look!

I'm "old school" and still like to send via U.S. POSTAL SERVICE, note cards, and large enough to fit a printed out photo, I love the beach (I live blocks from the beach), so this is the perfect note card.

These cards are beautiful. I have to keep one for my altar but I will share the others as notes to dear friends. Really beautiful and so quickly shipped. Thank you.

About bykatedesigns

Sales 105

On Etsy since 2009

bykatedesigns and how it started

by kate designs started in 2003, as a part-time business out of my home, in Mendham, NJ. I created artwork, primarily paintings, and taught art to adults and children. I also love fabric, and designed handbags, footstools and pillows for a time, and taught sewing and fashion design basics to children.

After a move to the midwest for 4 years, where I continued to paint, and opened a wine and art studio, teaching art to amateurs, I moved back to the east coast, to Vermont, to be closer to my family, and where I continue to enjoy teaching art. I also continue to paint my own original artwork, including landscapes of the beautiful Vermont scenery. So many of my inspirations for my paintings come from my travels to Italy, France, Tunisia, New England, and the midwest and west of the United States. I love to share my experiences with others, and find no better way to do that than by painting!

I re-opened my shop on Etsy, so that I can share my designs with you, in the form of notecards, prints, original paintings, and Christmas ornaments. Feel free to contact me with any questions about my work, I look forward to spending time creating for you!

I offer free shipping on all of my items, regardless of quantity!
