Announcement

"To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk." ~Thomas Alva Edison

reclaimed. undone. remade.: I find old stuff that maybe nobody thinks is any good, maybe they view it as unusable. I set my mouth, I squint at it, I reconfigure and try to put it together in such a way that everybody can see there's still some use in it, that it's still beautiful after all. That's what this shop is about: Putting new life into discarded things, putting value beyond just monetary into your purchasing dollar, keeping quality goods out of landfills, rethinking consumables and mass-produced schlock.

Some things? Once they're gone, they're gone forever. Help me rescue them.
"Let the reclamation begin!!1!"

Beautiful work! This is my second banner from Elizabeth and just as it was with the first, it was delicately packaged, arrived in one piece, and the banner itself is fantastic. I have these moments where I realize I haven't spent any money at one of her two shops in some time, and I always enjoy scouring her shops for something new to love up. As always, it's a pleasure, Elizabeth. Thank you!!

Absolutely fell in love with this piece on first sight, and it is even better in person. It arrived packaged perfectly and with much love evident in the making and sending of it. Thank you!

I simply love this banner. I bought one from this shop a few months ago as well. They are both quirky and eclectic and so well done. I'm so happy with my purchases!

Coolest banner ever! It's gorgeous and super sturdy. Also has just the right connotation of positive. I'm very tired of things that are too morose (I don't even own any) but messages that are too sweet make my stomach hurt. "go, human. go" is perfect!
