      I create original designs for various manufacturers for numerous product categories.

      Pottery Barn, and in major retailers Bed Bath and Beyond, Macys, TJMax, TK Max, Home Goods, Ross, Beales, Fred Meyer, Krogers and others. My dinnerware collection, "Cherry Rooster", was sold on HFN Television Network.

      I have created numerous Hand Painted designs for adult bedding that were sold in J.C. Penneys.

      I was hired to create a complete line of children’s bedding that was manufactured in India. I traveled and worked in India supervising all samples and their production. I created all of the fabrics used and the embroidery and applique, as well.

      I have created original designs for a Children’s upholstered furniture company, Newco International. My designs and original fabrics were produced and sold to retail giants Toys R Us and Babies R Us.

      I have licensed my designs in baby bedding to Crown Craft, Red Calliope, Gerber, Cottontale Designs and others.

      I have also licensed my designs in the Scrapbook industry for stickers and papers.

      I am currently creating designs for children’s sleepwear, bibs, bedding, gifts,and
      bath products for Triboro manufacturing .

      I am also in the process of creating designs for children's sleepwear company, Baby Funkoos. I have just finished my second line of Sleepwear for the company, little girls dresses and a line of sweaters for both boys and girls coming out this fall.

      I am very proud of the collection of Wall Decor and Wall stickers that I designed for Wallables.

      These are some of the design projects that I have been involved with through my company MaryJane Mitchell Designs. I am always looking for new and creative projects to develop for companies. I would love to work with you and your company.
