5 out of 5 starsI have been looking for a new purse for the last year. I looked in stores, online, and all over etsy. I have to say, this one was the right choice! the design is so unique. the leather is amazingly soft. lot's of space. the chain for the strap is even unique. the fact that it's recycled material makes it even better. There was a little tag on it showing the picture of the original item from which the leather originated. It was amazing to see. Very kind and talented seller. I HIGHLY recommend this shop!

Fashion from the Ashes
Fashion, caring about the environment and being kind to others are all carved into my palm's heartlines. I purchase old leather garments, fabric and jewelry from charity thrift stores and flea markets. I take them apart and re-use the materials to make one of a kind handbags and jewelry.
Even though my husband and I have moved from coast to coast and back again, you can still hear a little bit of a Minnesotan accent escape from between my gap teeth. I love to laugh, roller skate, and I wanna dance as much as possible. I devour music like Cookie Monster devours cookies (funnily, I devour cookies like Cookie Monster's cousin Cookie Fanatic – less rapidly, but with just as much gusto). I love my family and I want to make my parents proud of the person I am.
I grew up in Minnesota watching MTV and Friday Night Videos wanting to have as much fun with my wardrobe as my idols did. Almost every year of my childhood I was a "Rock Star" for Halloween. During my teenage years I really got into thrift shopping and spent every weekend with my Mom at thrift stores. I loved that there was no chance anyone else would be wearing the same thing as me.
After graduating from FIT in fashion design I knew that designing for mass production did not interest me. I wanted to be somewhere in between an artist and a fashion designer with knowledge and control over how others and the environment were treated in creating my designs. I started my company in 2005 with the goal of using primarily vintage materials for unique, one of a kind accessories.
Together we can do our part in making responsible decisions affecting the earth and humankind and look amazing doing it! I truly hope you love my Fashion from the Ashes and much as I love making them!
