Who We Are

 Tanya R King, founder and CEO of Design by Colors. Native of Detroit, Michigan, currently living in Las Vegas, Nevada. 8 years cancer survivor, inspirational speaker, and ambassador for the Kingdom of the Most High God.

Designing jewelry, was the last thing I thought, would change me, my path, as well as support the lives of others. What I saw as a hobby, turned out to be a plan bigger than myself, orchestrated by our Heavenly Father.

As I begin designing, I shared my designs with family and friends. Although the designs were nice to look at, my family and friends supported me with the knots showing, and the colors off.  As my skills improved, I was asked to design by color, which is how the name came to be. and my family encouraged me to sell my brand. 

 My first bracelet took me an hour and a half to make. Haha! My first sale was $10. Design by Colors' offline Grand Opening was BOGO 1/2 Off Sale! It was a No-Sale Sale! I couldn't give them away!  Yet, I believe my faith was being tested. I kept the faith and focused on God.

One day I asked our Father; "how is making bracelets honoring you"? A few days later, I had the opportunity to volunteer to make bracelets, to help raise funds for childhood cancer, and to purchase backpacks and school supplies for a school in the community, where 95% of the kids did not have supplies. We raised $400, which confirmed, this is the platform which God will use in my life to help others, and to honor Him. This was the beginning of Design by Colors, which I realized, our brand is truly 'designed with you in mind'.  A week later, we couldn't keep up with the orders!

We give thanks to God, our Father. We believe we are not here for ourselves, but for others. Therefore, we give back. 

For without charity, we are nothing. 

And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. (I Corinthians 13:2 KJV)
