Lennah Designs

When I became a mom, my love grew deeper than I ever thought it could and I found an inner strength I didn’t know I had.  My daughter changed my life and made me want to be a better person for her. Breastfeeding was a priority for us.  Now this isn’t a how-to-guide-to-breastfeeding, but I will say it was a bumpy and painful road. Moreover, I’m not a lactivist (lactation-activist), but let me say that there is nothing quite like watching your baby sleep in your arms after nursing.

Lennah Designs was created during our breastfeeding journey. With the constant pinching and poking, I abandoned all of my jewelry including a special necklace that was given to me by my mother. This, along with lack of sleep and not packing away my maternity clothes led to many frumpy looking and feeling days. I have always loved painting, photography, sewing, designing, and all things crafty so I decided to make a sturdy necklace my daughter could pull on while doubling as an attempt to look civilized and presentable. What I didn’t realize was how something as simple as wearing a necklace lifted my spirits! Not to mention it was a great distraction for my daughter during feedings.

It is our hope to spread the joy and share our necklaces at Lennah Designs with as many mamas as we can!  Whether you’re breastfeeding or bottle feeding, or simply around infants, our stylish and trendy necklaces will be one of those items you don’t know how you lived without!  Our necklaces also make great gifts for a new mama, grandma, or aunt, and your favourite caregiver.

Our purpose is to complete a full circle – a portion of the proceeds will be donated to SickKids Foundation (The Hospital for Sick Children) to invest in health and scientific advancements to improve the health and lives of children in Canada and around the world. We cannot put a price to a child’s life, but we can make a difference and contribute to the cost of healthcare research.
