ABOUT DELAINA:

Hi! I’m Delaina, owner of Delaina J Designs. I’m a small town gal living in Chicago’s West Loop neighborhood. I enjoy a good cup of cold brew (I personally think my husband’s is the best), a relaxing windows-down drive, & a workout at my local Pure Barre studio.

In 2016, I started lettering by addressing envelopes for a friend’s wedding. I never thought my new found hobby would become a true #sidehustle. I specialize in wedding stationary & signage, chalk design & apparel design.

The class was really fun, and our instructor Delaina was great! We all came out with fun projects to show off afterwards, and especially enjoyed the clear plexi-glass ornaments we completed at the end. Delaina had great notes for us, and exercises for us to do. I'm sure all of us will be playing around with what we learned later on.
