Feeling nostalgic...

Welcome to my studio...



I love collecting pretty things. Vintage fabrics, delicate stips of lace, forgotten photographs... these are the things that inspire me. With the snow pressing in on the windows, there is nothing quite like settling in my warm, cozy studio and sorting through buttons and antique hardware, a hot cup of coffee within reach.
I will be posting dates of my upcoming shows and events. In the meantime, if you want to see more of my handcrafted items, check out my Etsy store.
