Homeworks Etc. was born in 2007 when founder Jacqueline De'Ath partnered with Don MacLean on this business venture. Designing and painting, building and handcrafting were hobbies that we brought to the table. Perhaps it was our shared vision for creating meaningful and functional accessories that inspired us.
The feedback was outstanding! We knew we were onto something great. Jacqueline's eye for design and Don's woodworking experience was driving our business to exceed industry standards in quality and price. In January 2010, the company was reborn as Homeworks Etc. Designs Inc. when Jacqueline took on Sole Ownership of the company. The goal that Homeworks Etc. Designs is achieving... creating room decor and accessories that are decorative and functional! Our collections include growth charts, personalized signs, hook boards, letters and furniture.
The founder and President of Homeworks Etc. Designs Inc. previously worked as a Recreation Therapist before setting up Homeworks Etc. in 2007. Although born in Massachusetts, Vancouver, BC CANADA has been her home since she was 1 year old (moving here so her Dad could study Architecture at UBC). Love for design must run in the family! She is inspired by anything design and everything architecture, antiques and furniture, d.i.y. projects and TLC & HGTV television!
Jacqueline's biggest inspirations have been her daughters - developing her first designs for their rooms when they were born. Balancing the role of parent, spouse and working woman is a juggling act, one that I am so grateful for and proud to take on.
