Happy Holidays

We have been quiet at Designs by Alina, following a few health scares which have since, thankfully resolved. Now is simply a time to send our wishes to you and your loved ones for health, happiness, and love in the new year.

Our hearts go out to those who have lost their livelihoods or worse, a loved one. That said there were many silver linings, namely time with our families and time for introspection. We are thankful for friends and the love which binds our family.

Giving back to our beloved community by way of volunteering during the elections and by donating the net proceeds of our Belgian linen mask sales, has been extremely rewarding. In addition, they were the inspiration behind many new endeavors. In the early days of the lockdown, when not making jewelry and masks or zooming over cocktails, I recorded a few songs. Of late writing poetry, which has proven cathartic, has been a joy and I am humbled by the accolades I continue to receive from the literary community. Follow @pennedbyalina to discover the poetry. @designsbyalina is still the place for lifestyle and jewels.

We humbly leave you with a gentle reminder that the mask project to benefit Direct Relief is ongoing. These stunning, comfortable masks make gorgeous gifts/stocking stuffers. They are made to order in three business days so there is still time to order. Use FREESHIP (US only) at checkout for complimentary shipping on all merchandise throughout December.

It is our hope that you and your loved ones have found an opportunity for growth and discovery in 2020 and that 2021 brings tidings of joy to your home and beyond.
