Freelance Design is a new service we offer here in Nottingham at Luella’s Design Studio and we are super excited of the opportunities ahead of us!
I have recently quit my full time job, Yes! You heard it right, when the world has gone mad, our Government is to pot, the costs of fuel is ludicrous, food prices are increasing rapidly I decided to take ‘A RISK’. The biggest risk I have been wanting to take for so many years.
As I fastly approach my 40’s with a young toddler in toe I decided to jump right in, I haven’t looked back since!

I was in a chaotic job, the office was a toxic place to be, I felt like a grey cloud came over me as soon as I walked in the door that faded gently over night (faster at weekends!) and was back again by the morning. I was spinning lots of plates (something, I proudly do very well) but in this case more plates were being piled on top, for nothing extra than me, giving extra hours to cover it! ENOUGH, was ENOUGH and I too like the world went mad!! I smile about it now because I now see the light at the end of the tunnel, freedom to do what I wanted to do for so long and be my own boss, with work life balance at the core of my beliefs I did everything I could to get there!
So without further a do let me introduce to you our freelance services
