Hi, I’m Courtney Holleyman — a designer, costumer, and creative problem solver based in Waco, TX. I specialize in graphic design, custom sewing, and project-based freelance work that blends artistry with function. My background spans fashion design, visual merchandising, costume production, and higher education, which means I’m just as comfortable drafting a logo as I am tailoring a gown or building a polished presentation.
​
After earning my degree in Social Work at Baylor University, I discovered a passion for design while creating costumes for student productions. That experience launched me into the world of fashion and led me to study at The Art Institute of Dallas, where I gained hands-on experience in costume design, styling, and digital illustration. Since then, I’ve worked in bridal retail, live performance production, graphic design, and university program management — always staying close to creative, purpose-driven work.
​
Today, I offer design services, teach sewing lessons, and share inspiration and tutorials through my YouTube, Instagram, and offer one-of-a-kind and custom products in my Shop. Whether you’re looking to elevate your brand, learn a new skill, or collaborate on a creative project, I’d love to connect.
