About Jelly Press

Jelly Press is a lifestyle brand that celebrates exploration, wanderlust and curiosity. The very inspiration for creating Jelly Press came from founder and illustrator Chelsea Preston's very own enthusiasm for adventure and collecting local art from her travels. Creating stories and encapsulating memories is the very heart and soul of Jelly Press. Behind each illustration Chelsea Preston creates is a story - your story. Through each original Jelly Press illustration, Chelsea aims to capture the unique characteristics of every destination she paints so that each time you catch a glimpse of it, your mind floods with warm memories of your incredible adventure. Growing up in KY, Chelsea drew everything, including endless doodles of the tropics. This obsession led her to being banned from drawing palm trees in her high school art class (literally). Chelsea graduated from Flagler College, discovering who she was as an artist. This discovery led her to graduate school to study fashion & spending a summer in NYC where she quickly romanticized about acres of green grass, porch swings, & sweet tea. Her Flagler College soulmate led her back to FL to teach fashion design & illustration. After years of telling her students to follow their dreams, Chelsea decided to take her own advice. Her first Jelly Press series of illustrations celebrated the charming Florida beach town of New Smyrna Beach and has now grown to collections celebrating her travels across the USA.Read their story
