My husband ordered a leather map of Key West for our leather anniversary gift this year. It was flawless and Jessica added in hearts and locations where we got married! It was such a thoughtful gift and so beautiful! Love it so much!

Ordered this lyric sheet for my wife in a panic (less than a week before my anniversary) and unintentionally ordered the wrong item at first causing confusion as to what I was actually wanting. Jess and Mike took care of me right away and got the confusion sorted out. They got a proof out to me, I approved it, they produced the sheet and shipped to me with plenty of time to spare. I Will be book marking their website for the future.

Ordered an engraved leather photo for our anniversary, and was having a hard time choosing between two photos. The team at JW were quick to respond and showed an edit of one of the photos where they were able to photoshop some things out of the background, cleaning up the picture nicely 👍👍. Item came out better than I could have hoped, and highly recommend !!

I bought this leather song lyrics for my wife, for our anniversary and it turned out absolutely beautiful. It was wonderful working with JW Design Studio Gifts, they are fast on making their products, the products meets all expectations and delivery time was was quicker than expected. I highly recommend using JW Design and Studio Gifts for anything one might need a gift for!!

JW Design Studio is #1 at capturing your idea from a photo or discription! I highly recommend them for all the special gifts you need! Their designs and materials are very high quality. I had a photo of a friend's beloved dog that passed. Jessica & Mike captured the dog's face perfectly on leather and framed it in a dark walnut frame. It is beautiful! I know my friend will always love seeing her pal!Thanks to JW Design Studio for such a great job!

Wow...you guys rock!! My gift arrived well in advance of our wedding anniversary!! My husband and I were out shopping when it arrived but I was able to talk with the mail carrier on my RING DEVICE. I peeked inside the package at the beautiful picture. My heart just flipped flop at the eloquence of craftsmanship. I cant wait until Wednesday October 13,2021 when my Pastor husband opens this package. Thank you so much.

Got a laser-engraved leather page of sheet music from the first dance at our wedding. Jessica was great to work with, and had thoughtful clarifying questions on design and layout, ensuring the final product was perfect and exactly what I had in mind. Highly recommend!

Jessica and Mike were excellent to deal with! There was a very quick initial response from them when I emailed first to see if they were able to even do my pieces before I ordered. Every correspondence after that was super quick and friendly. I had somewhat of a unique piece as where I live in Canada my province consists of a large island and a part of the mainland too (Newfoundland and Labrador). Jessica was more than obliging to show me different scenarios as to how to design the pieces that worked best. Because I needed three pieces I was charged a little extra for the additional piece which is understandable but it was a very reasonable amount. It was refreshing as I know vendors tend to gouge on wedding pricing but I feel JW Design did not.From first contact to receiving my wedding cake topper pieces was within a month which I thought was great considering the mail is slower during the pandemic and it had to cross the US/Canada border AND make it to the island in which there are always delays. Shipping time was only 7 days for my pieces.I am overjoyed with my wedding cake toppers! It far exceeded my expectations and I am so happy to have such a unique and handcrafted topper at my wedding. It will sure to be a conversation piece among the guests as well. I am keeping it as a surprise for my fiancé to show him on the wedding day. He will love it!If you order from Jessica and Mike you will NOT be disappointed! Super work and super friendly. Thank you so much!- One Happy Newfie Girl 😊

I ordered an engraved leather photo as our leather anniversary gift. I couldn't have chosen a better business, better yet a SMALL business, to hand make something so beautiful. I would definitely recommend and use them again for other unique gift ideas.

Jessica and Mike were extremely professional. I have ordered multiple items and each one is just beautiful and arrives quickly and beautifully packaged. From leather prints to the beautiful woven blanket from my most recent order. I recommend their business to all of my family and friends. They are not your usual shop where you can find that item elsewhere at a cheaper price and lesser quality. Their work is unique and the best quality around. There is no one better to purchase from.

I have purchased two items from Jessica Wilkeson Designs so far and will continue to give them my business. They took my ideas, made them better and created beautiful gifts for both my daughters and sons-in-law. Can't wait to work on my next project with them!

I have received a handful of wonderful items from Jessica.

The cotton map is a perfect gift for my husband! It was completed much faster than I expected. There was even some confusion about my printing options and the response was really quick and so nice! They made sure it was exactly what I wanted. Thank you!

The items I ordered were for my 3rd wedding anniversary and I am so glad I went with Jessica Wilkeson Design Studio. I wanted to memorialize a handwritten letter to my wife on leather which was 2 pages long so I ordered 2 of the recipe letter items and Jessica took it a step further and offered to present it in a hinged, 2 piece picture frame, which was a great idea. The communications was great throughout the process and the quality of the product is superb. My wife was really surprised and blown away by the gift. I will definitely use Jessica Wilkeson Design Studio again in the future!

The product I ordered is amazing! I think what I enjoyed the most was the communication between Jessica and myself throughout the ordering process. It helped reassure that my order was being crafted exactly to my liking and handled with care. Once I confirmed my order, it was shipped to me right away. A pleasure to do business with. I would highly recommend Jessica!

I never even knew this technology existed! I was searching for a 3rd anniversary gift (leather for you guys who aren't in the know), and happened upon Jessica's site. She had great reviews, and the cost was reasonable. So...I ordered. I actually ordered two 11x14 designs. I had her do a picture of us in our wedding attire, and I did the "First Dance Lyrics" option, with a twist. I had Jessica put our vows on the leather. Not what we said, but what the preacher said prior to the actual vows. Pretty cool. Communication with her was spot on, and she beat expectations on the design, manufacture and shipping times. (For you procrastinators) And as far as the quality and wow factor, well, let's just say I got HUGE brownie points from my wife. We took the leather from the frame, just to see it, and it's thick. Pleasantly surprised there, as well. Quality. : )Thanks Jessica!I saw she does recipes as well. What a great gift idea to capture Granny's passed down recipe.

I bought my wife a personalised travel map with pins from Jessica Wilkeson for our anniversary (cotton map!). It was beautifully printed and suitable for framing. We now plot all our travels on it, and it's part of a gallery wall with photos from our favourite destinations. Brilliant gift. Can't recommend highly enough!

Joshua P.

15:04 22 Jan 20

Jessica's work is fantastic! Not only did the framed leather photo come out as well as I could have hoped for, but the turnaround time was incredible. I was [sadly] running late on ordering a 3rd anniversary present. Without having to explain or beg to expedite, Jessica had the product created, shipped, and delivered within a couple business days. Thank you!

I’ve ordered two things from them: the cotton map and the leather key ring. Both times I’ve ordered from them, Jess has been amazing and quick about responding. The material is great quality and the craftsmanship is awesome. I’m looking forward to ordering again in April (before our May anniversary).Our map is SUCH a conversation starter. Everyone loves it. Our pin colors mean different things and people love to ask about them.

I purchased the push pin travel map ad it was the most amazing gift for my partner for our anniversary. We document our travels and count all of the countries we are luck enough to visit. Such a perfect gift :)

I have used JW design studio for several anniversary gifts and other occasions. Everything they have made for myself and my family has been perfect.

Excellent customer service we will continue to buy from this shop.

I'm very happy with the work and communications with Jessica Wilkeson Design Studio. The first cutout arrived damaged, but the frame was in good shape. I was pleased with Jessica's quick response in getting a new wood cutout sent to me ASAP. It fit right in the frame and looks absolutely perfect! I cannot wait to see my boyfriend's response when he opens this on Christmas. He's going to love it!

I bought this map as an anniversary gift. When it arrived it wasn’t rolled but had an oval shape. I emailed the company and they immediately sent a replacement. These maps are beautiful. The paper is thick with a matte finish. It looks perfect framed and ready to track our adventures

My husband and I went to Cabo San Lucas to celebrate our dear friends 3rd anniversary with them. So, We wanted to give them a gift to commemorate their 3rd anniversary celebration. The leather map proved to be the perfect gift. We are completely pleased with Jessica Wilkeson Designs. Ordering online was almost effortless. We added a few more locations after placing the order and they accommodated our request and provided 2 possible designs for us to choose from. The finished product was delivered sooner than expected. I look forward to ordering gifts from them in the future.

Worked with Jessica Wilkeson Design Studio to create a treasured 5 year anniversary gift for the wife. It was a beautifully finished wood frame of our wedding invitation. I created problems by sending a bad image copy of the invitation and Jessica was very patient and worked with me to create the wood frame. As soon as I sent the new frame in, the product was complete and shipped within a few days! Outstanding! Thank you!

My experience with Jessica Wilkeson Design Studio was simply amazing! From sending in my song lyrics to the design review to receiving the completed piece. My wife was extremely happy with the gift on our anniversary. Which makes me happy as well :-)I would definitely recommend Jessica Wilkeson Design Studio for any occasion.

Jessica designed some amazing cork boards for me with a custom logo that also had a classy map of the US. It came with mounting hardware, pins and such. I love it! I highly recommend Jessica Wilkeson's Design Studio for custom and creative work. She's also very proactive in contacting her customers with questions or possible ideas that might enhance the creativity behind what she produces for them. A+ in my book, and I will most likely be a returning client! Thanks, Jessica!

I ordered five maps for our mayor and outgoing Council. Jessica and Mike both were very responsive to the many questions I had and throughout the process. They are very efficient and timely. From the time I ordered my product to the time it shipped and arrived was within a week. The shipping was delayed by one day and they informed me of the status and why and that it would shipped first thing the next day....and it was! I'm overwhelmed by the customer service....you just don't see it like that much anymore. Great product for a great service...and for a great price!

These guys are fast with communication and very thorough with making sure your purchase comes out exactly how you might want it to turn out when it gets delivered at your doorstep. I had a very old hand written recipe for a leather keepsake that you could barely make out but within a matter of hours, they helped salvage it and added an extra customized font in order to keep both sentimental value of the hand writing and adding text to deliver the full recipe for eligibility. These guys are the real deal! They know what they make are supposed to touch their customers hearts and at the same time they touched mine with how perfect the end result was and their communication shows they care about their work and art. Great for any kind of gift you can think of. These guys make it work!!!!!!

I ordered an anniversary present for my wife and was a little hesitant because there were some special instructions. I received an email from Jessica about the color scheme I picked with some recommendations. I’m glad I listened to her because the gift was perfect. I would definitely recommend this company for anyone looking for a special gift.

I was looking for a 3rd Anniversary gift for my wife which traditionally is leather. I started to look for leather anniversary gifts and found meaningless non-romantic or sentimental gifts. I came across Jessica Wilkeson Design Studio where I found beautiful laser engraved leather decor where I was able to get my wedding vows engraved directly onto leather. Jessica was very professional in sending me a sample to make sure it was exactly how I wanted it before she did the work. She even offered to fix a technical requirement for something I wanted added. I "approved" the design and within just a few days it was delivered. I opened the box to find a well wrapped and beautifully framed piece that my wife truly loved. I would recommend Jessicia Wilkenson Designs, especially if your looking for unique gifts for just about anyone. She has many other gift options to choose from.

I was in search of a unique 5year anniversary gift for my husband, when I found Jessica Wilkeson Design Studio's! They created a beautiful relief cutout of our wedding location! It was so easy to order, and they were very helpful and patient with answering all my questions! I was very happy with the end product, which arrived very quickly after ordering!

I was looking online for a unique 3 year anniversary gift and I came across the leather engraved music sheet. As soon as I saw the examples online I knew that my wife and I would forever cherish this personalized gift. However, like some men do, I waited until the last minute to start my search. I decided to email the company to see if they could expedite my purchase so that I would receive it on the day of our anniversary. I believe that I sent my inquiry the day before Christmas. That afternoon, Mike (CFO/Business Manager) responded to my email and said that they could meet the anniversary date that I requested. I actually received my gift today, two days before my anniversary! After opening the package, I couldn’t believe how great it turned out! I was so excited that I couldn’t wait to give it to my wife and I actually ended up giving it to her today. When she opened it, it immediately brought tears to her eyes. I would just like to say thank you for this unique, one of a kind gift that you made for our special occasion. I would also like to thank you for “bailing me out” and for making this process so easy.

Dave K.

22:05 30 Aug 17

Wow!! My order turned out EXACTLY like what I submitted! The workmanship is fantastic and it was worth every penny! Looking forward to doing business with the studio in the future. Mike and Jess were very prompt in answering my questions as well. Thank you for a job well done!!

JW Design Studio is incredible!! I uploaded our wedding invitation to them, and they used it to create a completely unique, customized design for our 2nd Wedding Anniversary! Jess worked with me and sent several drafts of the project until we were both in love with the design. I was involved every step of the way, and the communication was fantastic. They are professional, extremely prompt in their replies, and wonderful to work with. I will definitely be using JW Design Studio in the future, and I have recommended it to several of my friends.

I ordered a leather map of our wedding venue for my husband for our 3rd Anniversary and I couldn't be more thrilled with the result. It was an out of the way location with some special borders and notations and everything just came out so beautifully. I was so, so pleased!! I cannot wait to give it to my husband and I know he will be surprised and really happy with it. I have already recommended the site to several people.The thoroughness, communication and professionalism I experienced through the process could not have been better. It is rare anymore to have this level of personal service.I plan to order again and do not hesitate (obviously)to sing the praises of this site, and product.
