Recycling and tradition: my two passions
Riciclo e tradizione: le mie due passioni
Since I was a child I have always taken every opportunity to make something with my own hands, better if recovering material to be recycled! From toilet paper rolls to pasta made with flour and water. For birthdays or anniversaries my gifts were always something created by me, because I liked the idea of giving something unique made especially for that person, made with the heart! My studies took this path, I wanted to learn a trade where you were not behind a desk, but where I could give birth to something beautiful and precious from my hands! I started with an internship in a pottery workshop, then I did a regional weaving course. All the "ancient crafts" of my land fascinated me a lot and I wanted to find a way to combine them with my passion for recycling. I learned to sew on my own because I wanted to recover a pair of ruined jeans. I have always done many different things, experienced a lot with what happened to me in my hands at that moment! In 2009 I started the exhibitions, many people wanted to buy the things I created, so I wanted to try the summer markets. There I found many people like me, artisans and artists with beautiful and unique works, and in addition to earning some money I could explain to the people who approached my table what I did and why: it is my favorite part of this work! I hope to be able to transmit "virtually" to you this passion of mine!
From elementary school until now I have never stopped creating, trying to always learn new things, and I will never stop doing it! ;)
Have a nice walk in my shop! ;) <3

Good walk in my shop! ;) <3
Sin da piccola ho sempre colto ogni occasione per realizzare qualcosa con le mie mani, meglio se recuperando materiale da riciclare! Dai rotoli di carta igienica alla pasta fatta con farina e acqua. Per compleanni o ricorrenze i miei regali erano sempre qualcosa creato da me, perchè mi piaceva l'idea di donare qualcosa di unico fatto apposta per quella persona, fatta col cuore! Il mio percorso di studi ha preso questa strada, volevo imparare un mestiere dove non si stava dietro ad una scrivania, ma dove potevo far nascere dalle mie mani qualcosa di bello e prezioso! Ho iniziato con un tirocinio in un laboratorio di ceramica, poi ho fatto un corso regionale di tessitura. Tutti gli "antichi mestieri" della mia terra mi affascinavano molto e volevo trovare il modo di unirli alla mi apassione per il riciclo. Ho imparato a cucire da sola perche volevo recuperare un paio di jeans rovinati. Ho sempre fatto tante cose diverse,sperimentato molto con quello che mi capitava tra le mani in quel momento! Nel 2009 ho iniziato le esposizoni, molte persone volevano comprare le cose che creavo, così ho voluto provare i mercatini estivi. Lì ho trovato tante persone come me, artigiani e artisti con opere bellissime e uniche, e oltre a guadagnare qualche soldo potevo spiegare alle persone che si avvicinavano al mio tavolo quello che facevo e perchè : è la mia parte preferita di questo lavoro! Spero di riuscire a trasmettere "virtualmente" anche a voi questa mia passione!
Dalle elementari fino ad ora non ho mai smesso di creare, cercando di imparare sempre cose nuove, e mai smetterò di farlo! ;)
Buona passeggiata nel mio negozio! ;) <3
