Hi, I’m Dessa
I design press-on nail sets at a crowded desk by the window in my Memphis apartment. Every set starts as a pencil sketch, and I post each step on the way to the chrome finish.
The cherries and lightning bolts I keep drawing ended up on a hoodie and a phone case, and the sheets I trace from are in the shop as downloads. Come for the steps, stay for the drop list.

One email when a new set or design is on the desk, a few days before it’s in the shop. About once a month, never more.
