Hi! I'm Stephanie, the owner and artist behind Rooted Arts & Design in Temecula, California. By day, I'm an education specialist, and by night (and nap time!), I'm a mom of three toddlers who loves creating meaningful, handcrafted keepsakes.

I've always been drawn to beautiful handwriting and lettering. About 10 years ago, I started creating wedding signs using embossing and faux calligraphy on glass, and that passion has grown into a business centered around celebrating life's most meaningful moments.

I specialize in handwritten wedding vows, custom event signage, engraved gifts, and personalized keepsakes. Whether it's a pair of champagne flutes for an anniversary, a handwritten vow display, or a custom gift for a teacher or coach, I love transforming words and memories into pieces that will be treasured for years to come.

What I love most about calligraphy is that it slows us down in a world that moves so quickly. Every stroke is intentional, and every piece tells someone's story. It's an honor to create work that becomes part of weddings, celebrations, and everyday moments worth remembering.

Through Rooted Arts & Design, my goal is simple: to create timeless, handcrafted pieces that help people hold onto the memories that pass far too quickly.
