There are so many details to admire...I absolutely adore that large light cherry red wooden bead, the moss tulle trims with those lovely small flowers, the wonderful small clear "citrine" hued crystals, the focal crystal element, the dyed stitched mohair threads and all the trims & velvet sculped blossoms, are all amazingly beautiful!!!! Each and every piece I have from Kris, carries a feel of "love" and affection that surrounds me the minute I see it & touch it! Kris, thank you so much for the way your pieces always make me feel! :-)

5 out of 5 starsWhat a beautiful brooch in muted, almost faint sepia hues! Feels like it has already aged with time, wonderfully, and looks like a well-loved, passed on heirloom by a beloved person!!! The box the brooch came in, is beautifully decorated!!! I always love all the boxes and the amazing wrapping papers of each & every piece I have from Kris! There are, truly, not enough words to express my deepest appreciation for all the pieces I own by this kind soul! A million stars, as always!!! Thank you so much, Kris! :-)

5 out of 5 starsFor this necklace I'll start by saying that the actual piece I got is not the one shown in the pictures but another from the same collection, due to an unfortunate mistake by Kris. Although I would really want to have the original necklace I bought, this is also a truly beautiful necklace! Pictures, really, don't do it justice! It has lots of details that I love, such as the 3 eggplant little fruit-looking beads, the lovely pastel wooden pearls, that beautiful large silk flower with this amazing milky yellow crystal! And last but not least, the soft blue satin fastening ribbons!!! They have a lovely retro look! So much detail work went into this piece and is beautifully executed, so I am very happy to own it! :-)

5 out of 5 starsLovely small embellished purse with a wide array of colorful rolled fabric roses, beads, pearls, sequins, and lace. It also has a stunning rhinestone assemblage at the bottom of the front of the purse and has a magnetic closure. Kris lends her ultimate artiste touch to not only her garments(of which I have several, ) but to accessories as well.

5 out of 5 starsThis is an absolutely stunning neckpiece in lovely colours!!! I love everything about it!!! So much detail and exquisite craftmanship went into making this amazing piece!!! The focal point is actually a dome and not flat, as shown in the pictures! And the lovely grey satin fastening ribbons suit the whole necklace perfectly! It was packaged safely and came to me intact! There are really no words to describe how happy I am to own such a unique piece of pure art!!! Thank you so much, Kris! :-)

Romantic bohemian accessories and wearable art
It was about at 2000 I started to experiment with hand embroidery and beading more devotedly, altering my own clothes and making some accessories to match. I have a background as a goldsmith, working many years with silver and gold to create fine jewellery, so it was like next step for me to experiment with textiles and laces in jewlery making adapting the embroidery techinques and beadwork to create unique combinations for wearables. I've been studying textiles, leatherwork and ceramics in art school, but I love the softness and variety of textile, the possibilities to combine the color and texture. Antique garments, laces and trims are endless source of inspiration. I have collected these precious bits and pieces over ten year for study and to use at my work. The favorite materials to work with are always the natural fibers- silk, cotton, mohair and linen.
My first online gallery was opened at 2004, presenting brooches, necklaces and bags mostly, at the same time I continued to experiment with various techniques (ribbonwork, silk embroidery, freehand embroidery, beading, nuno felting) and mix them into my signature style. Creating wearables feels like painting a picture with threads and beads, all embroidered pieces are the result of the exciting process which I call- intuitive sewing. Intuitive, since many designs are created without any sketches- over the years I have learned to trust my sense of color and the feel of material/texture completely.
My inspiration is carried from flow of dreams and senses,- being mostly intuitive I let the vision of colors and feelings lead me on in creative process. I love to mix techniques/textures and discover subtle color harmonies. Visions are often influenced by the colors of nature, music, poetry and feminine grace of bygone eras.
At collages I have used photos and scans of my original embroideries and photos of people, nature and flowers taken over the years. Some altered details are from my vintage ephemera collection, vintage postcards, antique lace and antique paper/textiles.
Enjoy your visit!
