I'm a qualified Artist (Central St. Martins college of Art) and designer (Oxford Brookes University). I grew up in Hackney in the East End of London and work as a freelance Art Consultant.

I make bags and accessories by upcycling old clothes that would otherwise end up in landfill.

People stop me on the street quite often and ask me where I got my bag and/or accessories. They're not for sale directly, because they're my old faves that I was feeling too sentimental to part with!!

So here I am, to give you the inspiration and guidance you need to do the same!! Free some room up in your wardrobe and make a stunning one-of-a-kind accessory, uniquely yours.

..and if people ask, where you got it from, you can recommend my course! :)

Here's a breakdown of what you get:

a virtual live tutorial where we'll discuss your materials and what you'd like to make [bags, hair-ties, jewellery, bikini?!] Depending on requirement/resources we can go ahead to the next step, or schedule another meeting to complete the piece.

If you would rather I make the piece for you, we can arrange a courier service and then you can learn by watching/interacting virtually while I complete it.

I hand sew everything.

you will need:
sewing needles
thread
thimble
scissors
chalk
cardboard
any additional recycled materials
material/clothes
buttons
zips
velcro
poppers
clasps
bag straps

All genders and ages welcome

This is a great activity to do over the holidays

I look forward to creating something fantastic with you!
