Felted distinctive accessories and more by Vaida Petreikis
If you are searching for something special, high quality and made just for you - you came to the right place. Baby shoes, durable woolen slippers, stylish scarves, distinctive home decor items, and many other things - all made by a woman in a home like studio with a long history.
My studio is right next to my living place, in the very center of Kaunas, Lithuania. Living and working in such a place allows me to feel the very essence of the city, to participate in its life, to be in it and… To maintain my privacy at the same time. My felt and photo studio is located in an old 19th century building in the main street of Kaunas. Previously it was an apartment of my grandparents, and I am more than happy that I succeeded to retain it, and to turn in a wonderful place for working, planning, dreaming, meeting with people. So if you ever came to Lithuania, you are so welcome in my place, just let me know.
Felting came into my life in 2006, at first just as a hobby, but, step by step, this evolved into something else. It’s my passion. It’s my self-expression. My lifestyle. I just believe in what I do. I make many things - various shawls, ruffle scarves, arm warmers, fingerless gloves, slippers, dresses and much more, as I am so in love with wool and its endless possibilities. Especially I love making those super cute booties for the smallest ones, for babies! I make jewelry with handmade felt, various interior items from diverse materials, combining different techniques. Felt, metal, wood, stone, even photography - all in one. I love diversity and experiments. In everything. Even my education is quite a strange mix: Bachelor’s degree in Art and Art’s History, Master’s degree in Applied Sociology, Master’s degree in Information Technologies, seven-year studies at the Music school, studies at Textile Art school. I think that all education, all things I did and do in my life are closely related. It's a lifestyle. And art is an inherent part of my life.
I work alone, so I can control the process and the quality. Besides the things I make, in my shop you will find some of the supplies I am in love to use so I decided to share with you.
If you want to ask me something or just say hello - you are always welcome!
Thanks for stopping by!
