| Introduction | I am an honourary Melbournian having relocated from Perth to follow love and adventure. Fashion and textiles design is my trade but above all I love to reclaim the preloved, honour its history and give it the opportunity to be treasured in a new form. Op-shops are my paradise! Vintage prints, tea cups, postcards from yesteryear, napery, foreign film, love letters, string, produce markets, live music and sumptious cakes are all up my alley. I have just started my own handmade label, Craftisserie - an outlet to create handmade sweetness out of reclaimed materials. Feel free to take a peep! |
