In 2011 I opened an Etsy shop, my first online shop experience.   I sold handbags, embroidered towels, aprons, and scrub tops. I didn’t start dabbling in Upcycled designs till 2015.

October of 2017 I decided to try my hand at an outdoor vendor event called Applefest in Franklin, Pa.  My customers gave me so much encouragement!  For the first time since I began sewing, I truly felt like it was something I could actually succeed at.  

In June of 2018, I took the plunge and finally turned my passion into a full time business. I took a course in business management & opened up a brick and mortar store!  

Unfortunately, overhead costs were more than I could bear, and managing the store took away too much of my sewing time.  So, at the end of my 2nd year, I closed the store and moved to Charleston, SC so that I could attend outdoor events all year round while still finding time to sew!  

I love being able to make clothing that inspires happiness. I take pride in being able to save material from being thrown in a landfill while doing it!
