Dear Vanessa, thank you so much for the beautiful bag you made. It is for my little daughters ballet kit and I can’t tell you how much she adores it ( as do I). The little dancer on the fabric looks just like her! All the fabrics are so perfect together and the bag is exceptionally well made. What a steal and a treasure. This will be so well loved over many many years. Thank you for making and selling these lovely things at such a reasonable price.

Thank you so much for such a lovely review. So glad to hear your daughter loves it xx

All things upcycled with fabric!

where did it start....

I used to run a bricks and mortar tea room and gift shop. I loved it. Sadly, due to health complications, I had to sell my shop and I now work from home. My career path has changed significantly and now I sew from my home and sell my handmade goods online.

I have always had a passion for upcycling, as I hate the thought of something going to landfill that with a bit of magic, could be loved again!

I also manage a feral cat colony of 11 cats from our back garden, they have access to their own cat-shed in the garden and we feed them 3 times a day. Majority of my profits go into buying their food and covering vet bills.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my reworked, repurposed -made with love, items!
