Services
Frances and her family are originally from Arkansas but moved to Maine in 2013. She was a substitute teacher in her daughters' schools for 3 years when she saw that Aaron was hiring. In that time, she has taken GIA (Gemological Institute of America) classes and is now an Applied Jewelry Professional.
The jewelry you wear can transform your outfit and whole attitude. From simple and chic to sparkles galore, we design it all. Each new customer brings a fresh perspective and individuality to the designs that helps us create a distinct design that sets your jewelry apart. Come in today! Let us design a piece that accentuates your style.
Jewelry is more than just aesthetics. It is a memory that captures a moment in time, invoking a sense of emotion for the person who gave it to you. Ring repairs include prong repair and replacement, stone replacement. We solder breaks in a shank or replace shanks if they wear too thin. We also offer crown replacement, sizing, rhodium plating, setting diamonds or other gemstones, soldering rings together, or unsoldering them.
Designs by Aaron offers all types of jewelry made from only the finest materials, including gold and platinum. Every piece in the case is handmade or hand-selected. Our inventory is frequently updated and once a unique piece has sold, we do not replace it. This ensures that each piece of jewelry is as special as the person wearing it.

Designs By Aaron designed a beautiful remake of my rings for me, using all my diamonds. I wanted a simple design where my diamond would be the star of the show and not get lost in the setting. The outcome is beautiful!

Aaron and his crew are amazing. Never once did I feel uneasy about leaving my mom’s jewelry with them. They were able to bring it all back to life and gave suggestions along the way on things that would accomplish what I needed. Aaron and his team care about each piece and person that walks through the door and he doesn’t just try to make a quick buck. His work speaks for itself and his customer service is second to none. Thank you all and I’ll be a retuning customer for life!

I brought my great grandmothers antique ring here very lost with what to do with it! I desperately wanted to make another ring but didn’t want to spend a lot and they helped me figure out exactly that! They custom made me a gorgeous ring that went with my wedding band and was so meaningful. They were so easy to work with, great with communication, and very fairly priced. I will be back for more!

The level of service provided by the staff at Designs by Aaron, especially Francis, is far and away the best I've every experienced in any retail setting. I was looking for something very specific for my wife for our 20th wedding anniversary and Francis was able to make it happen. THANK YOU! Designs by Aaron has earned a customer for life!

Aaron and Frances did a great job of taking some rings I had and recreating them into a beautiful pendant! If you want something one-of-a-kind they will take your ideas and create something beautiful.

What a great experience! I've been looking for years for a wedding band to worn on it's own and they helped me design the perfect one. Also repaired my existing wedding band and replaced a missing diamond. Highly recommend!

I have gone to Aaron on numerous occasions for routine jewelry leaning and repair and always had great results. Now we are working on two designs- a pair of earrings and a special charm of an olive oil bottle. I have no doubt they will be just what I want and will post pictures when I get them. I highly recommend this store for all jewelry needs.

Whether I want something that’s more of a unique one of a kind piece, or more of a classic like my diamond studs, I love that I know every piece of jewelry in this store has been carefully picked, is high quality, and expertly crafted. Not to mention their customer service, which goes above and beyond! Aaron is incredibly talented, and Frances makes you feel welcome from the moment you walk through the door. We are customers for life!

I really like how they do repairs in house, I don’t like the idea of my engagement ring being shipped off. They were very friendly and were very helpful as I am making decisions on what I want my wedding band to look like. Will definitely be going back
