Creativity has always been a part of my life, but I never imagined it would lead me here. With a background in Apparel Marketing and Design, I started out sewing as a personal passion. It wasn’t until the pandemic that I truly reconnected with it—first by making masks for family and friends, then by creating tote bags that people instantly loved. From there, Pure Essence By Tessa was born, not just as a business, but as a way to bring bold, vibrant, and one-of-a-kind designs to people who appreciate the beauty of handmade craftsmanship.
Every bag I make is designed to stand out, whether through color, pattern, or the details that make each one unique. I choose every fabric and material carefully, ensuring that each piece is not just an accessory, but an expression of personality and culture. But this journey is about more than just design—it’s also a tribute to my beautiful late daughter, Essence. The name Pure Essence By Tessa is something we created together, and through every stitch, I carry her memory forward.
