Hello!
I live for the truth of sustainability and the need to understand there is no such thing as ''away'' when we throw away. This venture of textiles has drawn my lifestyle to flower cycling and the recycling of material that already exists. When using what already exists we can evolve these materials making them into something new. Foraging, networking, and educating others in the community with my skill set and techniques lend us to have more compassion for material waste and responsibility for the world we live in.
“I'm going to make everything around me beautiful, if it’s not alive, I will make it beautiful, that will be my life.”
