5 out of 5 starsAmazing work as always! I have ordered multiple items from this shop over the years, and the product is always excellent. The masks I received have fun prints, are comfortable and well-made.

4 out of 5 starsI get compliments on my masks all the time! They are super cute and well constructed. I only wish there was a wire on the nose portion to keep the fabric stiff around the nose to keep my glasses from fogging.

5 out of 5 starsI fell in love with these at a local craft show and ordered several as holiday gifts. Well made, lovely craftswoman, and quick shipping! These arrived wrapped in paper with different bows and identifying notes on the invoice so I didn’t have to unwrap! There will be three more happy people when these are dispersed ❤️

5 out of 5 starsI LOVE this bag. I literally cannot believe that it is handmade - it is THAT well-constructed. There is obviously careful attention to detail and utility - the key hook was just what I never knew I needed in a bag. And the shape (more fluid than structured) fits my style perfectly. "Tablet" sized is the perfect description - my iPad fits inside with plenty of room for more. Will DEFINITELY be back for more "inteligente" pieces like this one!

5 out of 5 starsThis was exactly what I expected! Well made, large enough for just what I need, and adorable! I've needed to remind myself of the cute quote on the inside a couple times. Thanks!

5 out of 5 starsI gave this as a gift to one of my closest friends. Just recently we went shopping together and she pulled the wallet out when she paid. I’m sooo happy to see that she’s enjoying her gift and that she loves hers as much as I love mine!

About BurroInteligente
-
There is always a little someone lurking behind the scenes. Like literally.
-
Handstitched detail makes each item slightly different, but also means the making is meditative for me.
-
My Gramma Smyth's old school sewing machine kicks out strong, durable seams for every item I make.
-
I get a little giddy when I get to work with a large fresh pile of linen.
-
Mantras and poetry and wit are an ongoing theme in my work and life.
Beautiful. Inspiring. Burro Inteligente.
When we hear words that resonate with us we want to remember them. Maybe we repeat them or write them down in a journal. Maybe they are on the post-it next to the mirror. In remembering words, we seek to weave those words into our everyday.
Burro Inteligente wants to help you remember important words, whether they are inspirational, silly, or sarcastic. Find them tucked inside your wallet or wristlet. Change a wall sign according to your mood. Remember a favorite poem as you set down your glass. Or reach out to me, so I can customize an item with your favorite motto.
In each piece you'll find a carefully curated combination of cotton print, embellished detail, and linen, always with a word or phrase that rings true to me. Linen is the cornerstone of every piece I make. Somehow both high end and casual, both silky and rough, linen ties together all the little details. After selecting the right piece of linen, I add prints, embroidered details, or scraps of trim to flesh out the personality of each small piece. As I assemble these elements, the right word or phrase might pop into my head--a line from a poem or a piece of advice, or something my kid said.
My kids are an active part of my making. I make everything at home, mostly in my kitchen, often while supervising their homework and craft projects and piano practice. I use an old-school, heavy, hot pink Brother sewing machine I inherited from my grandmother. I drink a lot of coffee. I love to hand stitch. And I want to make you something that will make you happy.

Once an English teacher, now a mother of three, always a sewist. For the shop, I do it all: plan, cut, sew, write, embellish, photograph, post, package and send. As a result, I sometimes forget to do the laundry.
