Hello, 1st of all, thank you for stopping by and taking a look at my boutique here.
I first came on Etsy in 2011 with my hand made bags. I no longer offer these bags as I began traveling to shows in the West, Northeast and Eastern states and now have my fashions on Etsy. Last year, I began setting up my shop here with my clothing in between all my other many hats, and keep busy with custom designin
So let me know if there is anything you like so I can assist you.
BEACON BLANKETS MAKE WARM FRIENDS SINCE 1904
www.blankettown.org
this is where you will find a great story and rich long history of how these iconic blankets were made. We connect people through our luxury designs, when you wear a Adore – Designs, you are wearing a story.
Designs with extraordinary colors, pictorial Southwest – Native American Indian inspired patterns with a rich history!
In 1923, The Beacon Company offered 86 patterns available in plaids, geometric designs, floral and Indian designs. My designs are carefully selected styles that limit lots of line cuts, so when I create a vest, jacket, coat or wrap shawl, I capture the artistry of these patterns, creating wearable art clothing, some of which are “one of a kind”!
Whether you are wanting that “one of a kind” cotton vintage-inspired from the old West or modern day Southwest – SantaFe / Aztec look, we offer rich blend of 60 cotton / 40 acrylic and vintage cotton Beacon textiles.
We are a combination of Southwestern and Native American inspired, Aztez, Santa Fe flair to Bohemian style. You will find a mix of spectacular pictorial motifs from these subtle blended soft colors of Indian - Tribal & Western patterns, to bright & bold! We are distinctive, eye catching, with exceptional hand crafted workmanship.
You can be a city girl, a country girl, a mountain hiking outdoor girl, to a down hill skier, a traveler, a business woman, as our styling fits just about anyone, who want’s unique clothing not found in department stores.
Our designs are simple, light weight, straightforward, & uncomplicated. We cut our designs with precision, matching and centering our patterns so the textile and colors become the focal point of our designs. We don’t just sew, we construct our clothing with tailored workmanship. It is from my very own experience, when I wear my designs out in the public, men and women approach me and want to feel the fabric, and ask where I got this. Replying with great enthusiasm
“I make and design them, do you want one?”
Heads do turn when you wear an Adore-Designs, I guarantee it. Fashion forward clothing for women, men, and children. Can’t find what you are looking for, we offer custom designing services as well.
Stylish Yes. Vintage – retro Yes. Vintage with a Modern twist Yes. Nostaligic Yes.Classy Yes. Stunning Yes. Distinctive, Eye catching Yes.
Cozy and warm you will feel, fashions that stand out from the rest, that’s what we do best. I’m so happy you found us & I look forward to Adore You in our Designs! There’s nothing like wearing American made.
It is an honor to work with these Native American Indian inspired textiles, bringing them to life. We look forward to inspire you, wrap you in our cozy and luxurious fashions and become part of our story!

5 out of 5 starsBeautiful vest. It’s comfy and warm. I didn’t know if it would bother me not having a closure. It did not. I will be ordering a jacket or robe in the future.

5 out of 5 starsTruly the most beautiful piece of apparel I own. This was a little splurge-y for me, as I focus on sustainability in my wardrobe and buy a lot of vintage and secondhand items for that reason, but the quality is just so unreal that I'd really like to make more pieces a part of my wardrobe. I'm going to be purchasing more (including stuff to wear outside, although I fully wore this on a red eye recently and got so many compliments haha!) from DeeAnn, who is just so lovely, for sure! In fact, I'm deciding on my next purchase right now. Highly, highly recommend her work.

5 out of 5 starsThe colors are bright and bold! I love the length and it’s great for chilly weather when you don’t want to deal with a heavy coat. I wore mine over a sweater and it was perfect! I received many compliments!! The workmanship is outstanding!! Thank you Adore Designs!!

5 out of 5 starsThis vest is beautiful and perfectly sewn to make it reversible. So much so that I tried it on myself! It’s a gift for myGranddaughter for Christmas! She is going to love it. It was so easy to work with DeeAnn. I’m hoping to work with her again. I definitely give this site a 5 star rating. Not just for the vest but also because of DeeAnn.

5 out of 5 starsGreat communication from start to finish. I got to pick my material, gave her my measurements and it was finished within a week or so. It's AMAZING. So thick but not too thick and so warm. I am thrilled! Highly recommend this robe!

She is a "blue ribbon knitter" She assisted me in creating a pattern for this lovely sweater coat. This style is replicated from a vintage sweater coat I have and rec. many compliments on when I wear mine so I decided to have her make this sweater coat.
