Shop small, do big things for your community
Why Small Businesses Matter puts a spotlight on the local merchants who donate their time, talent, goods, and services for the betterment of our community.
Meet Shia Stewart, founder of Destinie Designs.
Why did you start your business?
I started Destinie Designs as a way to express my creativity and to discover more about myself and where I fit in the world. It’s not just about making and selling beautiful products—it’s about creating a space where I can connect with others, share my passion for design, and grow as both an artist and a person. Destinie Designs has been a journey of self-discovery, allowing me to channel my creativity into something meaningful and impactful.
What is your best-selling product/service?
Our best-selling products are our one-of-a-kind resin keychains and beaded bracelets. Each resin keychain is completely unique, carefully crafted to reflect individuality and creativity. The beaded bracelets are equally special, blending vibrant colors and thoughtful designs to create pieces that customers love to wear and gift. Both products reflect the heart of Destinie Designs—celebrating uniqueness and self-expression.
Absolutely. Destinie Designs has evolved as I’ve learned more about myself and what I want to offer. It started with creating personalized items, but it’s grown into a platform for creativity and connection. Now, it’s not only about the products—it’s about empowering others to embrace their uniqueness and helping me find my place in the world through every design, project, and customer interaction.
