Meet the Artist
Hi i'm Melissa ,
I’m a wife, a mom, a sister and the founder of Ever Sage Designs.
I am always down for a dance party or to curl up on the couch, with coffee with way too much cream.
I grew up finding peace in nature and healing through art. It started as a kid making handmade cards for family and escaping a painful home life by spending hours playing outside.
Life hasn’t always been kind, I’ve walked through childhood trauma, chronic illness, and deep loss but creating has always been how I find light.
Sharing that light with others, helping them to feel seen and that their story matters is one of my greatest passions in life.
It's what inspires me to help you preserve what matters most.
Now full circle I create greeting cards, art prints for your home and create custom art that holds your story.
Living a dream the child artist in me never would have imagined.

Here's what they said
I would recommend Ever Sage Designs to every bride!
Melissa was so wonderful to work with.
Communication was great and I felt like she wanted me to be happy with my flowers above all else. The flowers were so pressed so carefully that they look incredibly vibrant and almost alive.
Other companies I looked at seemed as though they just threw them in a frame; hers was a work of art.
Everything was packaged beautifully for the return shipping as well. I am beyond thrilled to have this special piece of my wedding to hang up in my home!

I am ecstatic with my preservation
I loved working with Melissa. She is very patient and helpful throughout the entire process. She was always there when I needed to speak to her.
when I look at the preservation it brings me back to our favorite memory.

If you are thinking about preserving your wedding flowers - I am so glad I did!
Can't recommend Ever Sage Designs enough - the pieces that were created to preserve our wedding flowers are stunning, we have it hanging in our bedroom and I truly will cherish them forever!
I liked that the art didn't scream "this is from my wedding" and was timeless and tasteful.
Melissa makes you and your art feel special and unique.
We love the art and have it hanging in our bedroom as a reminder of our beautiful wedding day.

I felt heard and valued as a client every step of the way
Melissa at Ever Sage did SUCH a beautiful job preserving my wedding flowers! She was so professional and the process was simple and easy.
My frame arrived in a timely manner and was beautifully packaged, and is sturdy and very high quality. Highly recommend Melissa’s floral preservation services!

We love hanging them up on our wall and gifting the smaller pieces to our parents.
I love the simplicity the style. The flowers preserved in giant acrylic bocks didn’t appeal to me - I was worried that the acrylic would yellow with age.
A surprise to us is that when the light hits right the shadows from the flowers in the frame appear on the wall. It’s almost like a multi-dimensional piece of art during certain hours of the day.
