On Etsy since 2010
  • like a kid in a candy shop when i source my materials....
  • workin on some new styles... :-)
  •  

I make things....

I started designing in 2002 and created a women's line which was produced in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, debuted in NY fashion week ,and sold internationally for several years. My 'main' gig is as a performer/ entertainment professional and as I traveled the world I continued my passion for fashion. I first started my Etsy in 2010 while living in Italy -- creating earrings crafted from leather, feather and fine chain hardware. I have always loved bags and began playing with materials and constructing small clutches & carry-alls while living in Rome, Italy for 7 years. I was highly inspired by the famous Italian craft-work with leather and, upon returning to the states in 2011 had my first bag commission for the luxury fashion line, Plume.
I have been honing my skills over the years and my passion for bag making has grown into an obsession. I am happy to be re-opening the shop with what has become my 'signature' canvas and leather totes. I am constantly playing with styles and currently am excited to debut what I call my "Zen Elegance" line. It is based on the zen aesthetic principles of Kanso (understated beauty and utility) and Koko (restraint that cultivates focus and clarity). Each bag is unique and crafted with love and is intended to help you 'carry' these principles into all that you do in this world. Inspired creation & love!
