About Rebel Rose Designs by Brook

Hey there! I'm so glad you're here!

 

     My name is Brook Stewart and I am the owner and creator behind Rebel Rose Designs by Brook. I have been a crafter my entire life and as those crafts and hobbies have evolved and changed over there years, it has now landed me in a position to help provide for my family doing what I love! I live on a farm in Kansas with my husband of 21 years and 2 of our 3 kids. My oldest graduated in 2023 and is finishing up his electric lineman program and already has a full time job at a local electric company. My middle kiddo is heading into 9th grade and the youngest is starting 7th grade.
     My business name, Rebel Rose Designs by Brook, has a special meaning for me. It's named after my late grandmother, Rosalie, who was quite the rebel in her day! She was also crafty and I know she would be so proud of what I am doing!
     I started this business back in 2019, right before COVID hit. In the beginning I was using faux leather and doing a lot of vinyl work creating personalized sports earrings for local friends. I made the move into genuine leather and never looked back! Since all the shows I had signed up for ended up getting canceled in 2020, I used Facebook to do online earring parties - similar to MLM online parties with a hostess that received free product and discounts based on the amount of sales their party generated.
     Once shows started back up, I dove in full force. They are a lot of work, and as much as I acutally LOVE doing them, I have decided that with 2 kids that do ALL the things and going into junior high and high school, I would like to slow down a bit in 2025 and focus on my website here so you can order any time! Today I make genuine leather earrings, bracelets, keychains and accessories and am starting to dabble in leather hatbands as well.
