MadeMary - garlands and more for you and your home
Creating with colors makes me happy, and I hope you will enjoy the color combinations in MadeMary creations! It is a pleasure for me to find beautiful materials, and put them together in simple, organic ways.
My garden and nearby landscapes provide lots of inspiration for my projects, as do textile patterns, fine artwork, and mundane objects ... you never know when a color combination will strike you as interesting! Sometimes the color combinations appear when I'm cleaning up the studio, and other times I sit and sort, try this color, then another, edit and re-arrange until the mix is satisfying and eye-catching.
I began knitting and embroidering as a teen and much later started machine sewing and sashiko stitching. After many years as a delighted Etsy buyer, I decided to open my own little shop. In an earlier life I taught environmental studies and I continue to be interested in environmental issues and making a healthy home for all of us.
My hope is that your MadeMary item will brighten your space, and add a celebratory cheer to your day, and that it will last for a long time - whether it is used daily or for special occasions.
