Welcome to Designs By Syds!

My name is Stephanie.I worked for Foley’s/Macy’s for app.24 years as a Sales Manager/Merchandise Manager.I loved my job as a Merchandise Manager but there came a time I had to give that up for health reasons and to spend more time with my husband and daughter.So here I am applying so much that I learned there to having my own business.

If you ever come to Waco to see Magnolia at The Silos, come see me at another great place called Spice Village , it’s a great place to shop and just a few blocks over close together The Riverwalk.I live in Burleson and offer local delivery .

I am excited to see where this path takes me.I have come out with a lot of new things this year that seem to be doing well.I hope that you love them.I am continually trying to learn more and evolve my items and work with a variety of of textures and colors.I lean toward a rustic style and many pieces cross over to farmhouse and vintage as well.

The ink process that I use for many requires much sealant,sanding and time to reach its fullest potential. The burlap is another story,I just love burlap and there are so many ways to work with it, and of course I have painted items as well. I enjoy mixing all those materials together when I can.

I do custom orders so don't be afraid to ask if I can create something just for you.In most cases,I can.
If I can not achieve what you desire within my creativeness on your request ,I will recommend another Etsy shop to help you.

It is a joy helping my customers and doing my very best to please them.I stand on pins and needles waiting to see positive feedback because I hope I have made them happy.I always put forth my best effort in hopes that my customers will see that in my work.While I am certainly not perfect,I do strive to make quality gifts and items.

I call this my Proverbs 31 project that God has blessed me with.I feel there is more He has instore for me just around the corner.


You can always find me on Facebook and and Instagram under “Peace 2 U Designs By Syds" in which you can explore a variety of merchandise that is handmade.
