I upcycle natural fibres – silk, fine cotton, wool. Too many of these gorgeous fabrics end up in landfill, and its hugely satisfying to salvage a few to turn them into something someone will treasure. I source fabrics from op shops and from customers who are decluttering. The longest part of my process is the reimagining – which fabrics work best together, what creation works best for them, and what do my customers tell me they need/enjoy.
WASH Gentle hand wash in cool water, rinse carefully, and do not wring or twist DRY Dry flat on a towel in the shade IRON If you must! Use a cool iron DO NOT Tumble dry, dry clean, or bleach
