About

I make all my pieces using beads, buttons, lace and shells that I have collected in my travels or that I recycle from second hand and vintage shops. I love to rummage around in old stuff. I hand dye my lace using different dyes, some made from organic coffee, tea and vegetables. All my pieces are hand sewn except when machine sewing is necessary. I live on the water with my Jack Russell Terrier, Sophia Loren. I have another shop on Etsy, Dvintage Unchained (The D is silent.), where I sell vintage clothing and accessories. I try to enjoy each moment of La Dolce Vita. Life is sweet.
