Repurposed sewn objects made with love

My name is Laia and I was born and raised in Valencia (Spain). I'm a professional artist (got an university degree in Fine Arts in 2004), but also a professional daydreamer who can't stop crafting stuff, looking for treasures on the street markets and looking at the clouds. I've knitted, drawn and invented creatures since I can remember.

I created Retal para Cual (spanish word game meaning "scrap for everyone") during the summer of 2011, as a brand of textile crafts specialized in clothing repurpose. Through it, I make unrepeteable objects, toys and clothing items that respect the environment whilst getting the personality which is absent in serial production.

I'm very involved in local craft activity and concerned about sustainability, so I'd love if you could come to meet me at my workshop in Valencia, or join me in one of the craft markets where I usually participate.

I love human touch, so all your questions, doubts and suggestions are welcome! Please, contact me on: retalparacual[!at]gmail.com

Thanks for stopping by!
