Hi there, I’m Stephanie, owner, and creator behind Darling Savage Designs. I create handmade wooden signs, hand-lettered products, and other whimsical items to brighten your days. What I’m really known for is inspiring others to live their best life. I consider myself a quote connoisseur, an old soul, a coffee addict and a hippie at heart. You’ll see these aspects of my personality throughout my work in addition to some influence from my husband’s “get shit done” attitude.
I have been an artist my entire life. From drawing in my mother’s cookbooks in preschool to studying art in college, to most recently teaching elementary and middle school art. I love to create and I love seeing my creations in the hands, homes, and hearts of others.
Darling Savage Designs evolved rather organically after convincing my husband, Mark, to build me some wooden signs to paint for wedding gifts. Before I knew it, I was fulfilling custom orders, starting my own online shop, and asking Mark to build me signs and clipboards on the weekends and after work hours. We are a great team and honestly, I wouldn’t be anywhere without him. He is handy and I am crafty. He likes to build shit and I like to paint it. He is neat, I am somewhat of a mess. I am the brains and he is the brawn. We balance each other out, and together we make some really awesome things.
Just last month, Mark and I moved to Pinetop, AZ a small mountain town with so many gorgeous trees that my heart could literally explode. We are still trying to figure this whole thing out, but each day I am so inspired, motivated and touched by my customers and my fellow makers hustling to live a life of purpose, joy, and love. I hope that my work offers you some simple reminders to do the same.
