I may have a fancy title as a fashion designer, but my real passion is YOU.
With 5 years of fashion school magic and 20 years as a professional designer and design teacher, I’m here to inspire YOUR life with tips, tricks, and insider secrets so you can:
- Make jaw-dropping bags, plush pillows, and dazzling home decor so you can live a vibrant life surrounded by stunning pieces that express YOUR style and personality – while also saving the planet.
- Say goodbye to endless scrolling and hello to cozy evenings spent sewing and listening to your favorite mysteries.
The best part? Feeling that satisfying “WOW” when you turn your old dress into a fabulous new pillow or bag.
- So, leave your worries behind and get lost in the creative flow while you create a gorgeous little treasure you’ll love and use every day.
If you secretly dream of Chanel being your personal walk-in closet, and that your home looks like a Parisian Boutique Hotel, then I totally get it.
But if you’re anything like me then your dreamy visions of fancy bags and lush home decor just took a nosedive thanks to the shocking news of how the fashion industry is basically throwing a wild frat party at the expense of nature.
Now, I can’t even get a new pair of socks without feeling guilty.
STILL – How were any of us to know?
It’s not like there was a giant blinking billboard at the entrance of the mall shouting,
“Stop! You’re about to poison the planet!”
And I didn’t even know the dirty truth back when I was a fashion industry designer.
But, guess what?


The industry didn’t invent color and beauty.
Those lovely pink peonies and sunny yellow roses?
They were here WAY before fashion started poisoning the planet by producing an endless stream of cheap polyester “outfits of the day”.
The industry did NOT invent luscious colors and gorgeous fabrics.
They simply exploited our natural lust for beauty to make money while polluting the planet and us all.
Let’s flip the script!
WE’RE the true creatives, you and me…
So, grab that dress and turn it into a dazzling home decor or fashion treasure.
- because color and beauty BELONGS TO ALL OF US,
- not those big bad brands (you-know-who) that only PRETEND they care.
But, Stella. How do you know all this?
I’m an award-winning professional designer, stylist, and design teacher.
I’ve designed for more than 25 brands in 5 different countries, have been a Fashion Week stylist, and styled rock stars for TV.
- My training with a Parisian couturier taught me the craft of excellence, luxury and refined sewing skills.
BUT – Don’t worry my friend. I’ll NEVER criticize your broken needles or crooked seams.
I simply use my wealth of knowledge to make it EASY for you to get a cute result.
- Teaching hundreds of style and fashion students has turned me into the ultimate sewing and design superhero—making DIY bags and home decor so easy, even your adorable little kitten could do it (if she could only thread a needle).
- Upcycling fabulous finds for my home and wardrobe has earned me more compliments than I have fabric scraps, from stylish friends and tall, handsome strangers…
– and BOY, does it feel good to tell them I actually made those gorgeous pieces in a way that helps preserve nature.
Now you can get that too…


Let’s join together to craft eco-friendly little luxuries that are as meaningful as they are gorgeous!
You’ll feel like a brand new YOU when you can tell your girlfriends:
“Look what I made! And it’s good for the planet too!”
