When was the last time you enjoyed playing with stickers? If you’re like many, it’s been some time—but thanks to interior designer, television personality, and now author Tracy Metro, sticker activities are officially back, and more engaging than ever. Her new book, design by STICKER, is making waves in the world of interior design, offering a playful and innovative way to explore your creative side.
Tracy Metro Launches ‘design by STICKER’
Metro introduces design by STICKER, her vibrant and captivating new book that empowers you to unlock your inner interior designer—without the need for tools, budget constraints, or concerns about fleeting trends. To celebrate the launch, Metro organized a special girls’ night out in Los Angeles at the exquisite Cosentino showroom in West Hollywood: a Sip n’ Stick gathering, featuring cocktails, appetizers, striking designs, and an array of colors.
“This isn’t just a book; it’s a design playground,” Metro stated as she welcomed attendees, sporting a striking royal green latex dress and her signature red lipstick. “You don’t need expertise to recognize your preferences. This book is crafted to assist you in identifying your style while ensuring you have a delightful experience in the process.”
Unleash Your Inner Designer
The book’s structure is remarkably straightforward: fifteen “blank canvas” rooms serve as backdrops for over 500 repositionable stickers—ranging from luxurious velvet couches and antique mirrors to lighting solutions and eye-catching fabric patterns. The objective? To create an ideal room that symbolizes your individual style, mood, and current design passions, whether it leans towards bohemian chic, retro aesthetics, or minimalism. “This book is designed as a safe area for your inner designer,” she added. “Free from judgments and strict rules, it’s all about creativity.”
A ‘Sip n’ Stick’ Celebration
Guests at the Sip n’ Stick event were invited to select a book, a cocktail (choices included the “Rose Gold Refresher” and “Boho Bubbly”), and immerse themselves in their sticker-inspired vision, using the stickers to decorate a room on a large tile given for the occasion. The atmosphere was laid-back and imaginative—akin to a lively Pinterest board energized with joy and chatter.

“I was pleasantly surprised by how satisfying it was to design a room using stickers! To put a mid-century coffee table adhesive next to a palm plant and think, ‘Yes, that’s totally me,’” exclaimed Keri Ann Kimball, CEO of Kimball Entertainment.
More Than Just a Book: A Creative Outlet
Metro, who is renowned for hosting House Doctor, is celebrated for her strong use of color and undaunted approach to do-it-yourself projects. Through design by STICKER, she channels this dynamic energy onto the page—inviting everyone to participate.
“It’s like fashion, but for your home,” a guest commented. “And considerably less stressful than shopping for a real couch.”
