A few years ago, I sort of fell into a side business. I make accessories from headbands for kids to bridal veils, boutonnieres, bouquets and just about anything my clients can dream up that they'd like me to create.
I was (and still am) poor, so I wanted affordable pieces for other frugal ladies out there. My crunchy heart told me to use all the unwanted materials possible, so I collected boxes of old material (vintage.. score!), decrepit center pieces/faux flower arrangements, broken jewelry, etc etc etc... and I branched out into using feathers (cruelty free, of course) from the birds on my parent's land.
Stella Clare was born.
I named her after my two grandmothers, both style icons in their own rights. Stella was the costume curator at the Met in NYC and taught fashion design at various schools. Clare is the kind of woman who always looks like she's in an advertisement... totally impeccable taste.
