![A label design in the works for @etant_you ✨
Packaging design is always so much fun to conceptualize and create! Ale approached me and wanted a label that was beautiful and clean but still fun and artistic. Can’t wait to share more from this project 🤍]()
A label design in the works for @etant_you ✨ Packaging design is always so much fun to conceptualize and create! Ale approached me and wanted a label that was beautiful and clean but still fun and artistic. Can’t wait to share more from this project 🤍 ![A little self introduction for those of you who don’t know me... ☕️
Hi! I’m Janelle and I’ve been a brand designer for around 2.5 years now. I started as a freelance graphic designer (the first services I ever offered were $5 illustrations on Fiverr) but when that started growing, I switched gears into logo design and eventually decided that branding was what I wanted to do.
I started freelance because I wanted to have the freedom to take my work anywhere — but I ended up gaining so much more than that! I was able to scale my services + start my own business, move from Toronto to Brighton to Bali, have stability in my job + income, and meet tons of amazing people along the way. If you’re looking to get into freelance or have just started + have questions, my DMs are always open 🙆🏻♀️
I’ve been a little slow on social media lately but I’m going to try to share more because I have been working on some really fun projects lately that I’m super proud of. So stay tuned y’all!
If we haven’t had the chance to connect yet, say hi in the comments or DMs + let me know a bit about you! ❤️]()

Good communication is the key to any thriving relationship. And since design is such a technical field, there is a lot of room for miscommunication + confusion between designers and their clients!
Today, I’m sharing a couple of tips I’ve picked up over the years that have improved the way that I communicate with my clients. ✨
What are some other client communication tips that you swear by? Let me know in the comments! 💛]()

Harry and I have a couple days left of mandatory quarantine in Jakarta, and then we’ll be moving to Bali. We’ve been dreaming of moving to Asia since we met 3 years ago in Vietnam — and the journey has been wild since then (LDR, quitting our jobs and moving to the UK together, pandemic, more LDR) — but we’re here now ✨
Still adjusting to the time zone + catching up on rest but we’re so happy and grateful to finally be in Asia again.
Hot + humid weather, I’ve missed you 🥺🔥

I absolutely love branding coffee shops + small, cozy spaces — probably because I love spending time in them. This project was especially fun as I spent half a year living in Saigon and have so much love for Vietnamese culture. 😍
I’m currently booking for May and June, so if you’re a small biz owner and you’re ready to bring your brand to the next level through design — get in touch and let’s discuss your vision!]()

Today’s blog post is one that I wish I had read when I first started freelancing! I’m walking you through the tools that I use to manage payments, invoices, and expenses as a designer + biz owner — and also talking about how I learned to avoid those ridiculous PayPal conversion / transaction fees.
