About Me

Hey, I’m Kelsea!

Let me tell you a bit about my journey, and why I’m here to help you find and share your own signature aesthetic.

Growing up, I always loved creating—whether it was decorating my room, designing an invitation for a friend’s birthday, or picking out the perfect playlist for a night in. But it wasn’t until I started hosting more events and paying closer attention to the little details that I realized how much of a personal reflection your space and style can be. I wanted to make things beautiful and meaningful in a way that felt true to me, not just another Pinterest-inspired setup that anyone could recreate. I wanted my style to shine through, whether I was hosting a dinner party, designing a cozy nook, or just putting together a casual gathering with friends. That’s where my approach to hosting and style evolved.

It’s not about impressing others with perfection—it’s about expressing who you are and making people feel welcome, seen, and connected. Whether you’re entertaining or just getting your space to match the vibe in your heart, I want to help you do it effortlessly.

Why I Do What I Do

I’ve noticed that so many women are looking for ways to add more personal flair to their lives. You want to be creative, you want to host with confidence, but maybe you feel like you’re missing that spark or don’t know where to start. Or maybe you’re trying to juggle a million things and feel like you don’t have the time to figure out how to make your home or event feel really you.

That’s where I come in. I created Hostess by Design to show you that it doesn’t take a huge budget or endless hours to create something truly you. Through my own experience, I’ve learned how to balance elegance with creativity—how to make something feel stylish without stressing over perfection. I want you to feel empowered to use your creativity, whether you’re just setting the table or throwing a big gathering.
