Thank you for visiting my online store, everything is hand-made, with love, by me.
A brightly coloured scarf or neck tie can refresh your spirit as well as your outfit!
Wear it wrapped around your neck, knot it at one side, twist, roll and wear as a sash, on the wrist or as a chic headband, tie it to your favourite bag for an instant lift and let it float happily behind you as you stroll jauntily down the street!
How about a great obi belt?, all one of a kind and all reversible, giving two great looks for the price of one! cinch in the waist of a dress or for a more casual look, team with a pair of jeans and a top a great accessory that can be worn in many different ways! A must have piece this season!
Versatile fashion accessories and great, inexpensive, one of a kind gifts!
I am inspired by my work and love of costuming for theatre and film and vintage textiles. All of my work is one of a kind and crafted using up-cycled, vintage silk kimonos and Japanese fabrics. I work from my studio (at home) in clean green Aotearoa, (New Zealand).
Please note, I often use vintage textiles in my work and I always try to use the best pieces of fabric, however due to its vintage nature, some small marks or pin holes may appear, I believe this adds to the individual charm of each piece.
Thanks for browsing and enjoy!
