It all began…

spending Thanksgiving break hand cutting Christmas cards with an X-acto knife, only able to produce a few cards at a time because the hand cramping was rough! I’ve always enjoyed drawing and painting and was drawn to stationery as a further means of self expression.

If you love white space, timeless pieces, and feeling pampered, then I’m your girl.

Hi! I’m Teresa DeCarmen, stationer and fine artist for the modern host.

Welcome to my creative design boutique where white space is celebrated, quality paper and materials are sought after, and the distinct qualities that make every client unique are embraced.

Now, imagine the feeling

of sitting on a leather sofa with a plush throw blanket or drinking your morning coffee at a white marble countertop with the warm sunlight kissing your face.

These feelings embody the essence of Boutique by TeresaKatherine, a creative design studio delivering timeless stationery and signage goods. My elegant, modern designs, bring a level of uniqueness to any occasion. Whether it be a wedding, corporate dinner, baby shower or birthday party, your guests will be welcomed to a special and inviting experience.

I combine my expertise in printing, graphic design and fine art to create pieces that express your style and sense of hospitality. If you love white space, harmonious contrast, and subtle accents, then we go together like chocolate and strawberries.  

While I value quality and well-crafted pieces, I’m a fancy dress, no-shoes, sitting on a porch swing kind-of gal, so when we are chit chatting over French-press coffee and homemade pie, I want you to feel right at home!

Ever striving to be a gracious hostess, you may also find me baking the latest "pie-of-the-month", birthday cake, or painting a still life. Send me a message, my door is always open!
