Every piece begins with a treasure hunt through second-hand and vintage stores in the Hudson Valley.
I seek out natural fabrics like cotton and linen – materials with history, quality, and character – and give them a second life in the form of thoughtfully handmade items.
By working with rescued textiles, I not only celebrate their beauty but also keep them out of landfills, extending the life of fabrics that were made to last. Each creation is unique, shaped by the patterns, colors, and textures I discover. The result is a collection of one-of-a-kind pieces designed to bring a touch of charm and joy into everyday routines – while also supporting a more sustainable way of creating.
