Finding Inspiration at Every Turn

I see treasures amidst junk, potential and purpose in the obscure, and magic in the unwanted. I want to help you communicate who you are without saying a word, tumble into the comfort of a home that reflects you at your core, learn how to put items together in a way you may not have considered before AND do all this by sourcing and selling sustainable, slow, repurposed and restyled items.

My Story

I grew up going to thrift stores, consignment shops, antique collectives and flea markets. My parents were antique dealers and from a young age I began to cultivate an ability to spot treasures among other, less-than-savory items. As an adult, I owned a fashion and home consignment shop for 8 years. I have now turned my attention to doing pop-up sales and helping private clients identify and refine their own spaces and style.

Fashion, art, design and architecture have all defined us as humans throughout history. We innately want to create and express who we are with an outward show of color, texture and form. Every culture in the world does this in some form. In the photos below you can tell a great deal about the people or spaces shown without any caption or description. In recent years these acts and expressions of creativity have been compromised by advancing technology (that makes ever cheaper goods) and globalization. Fashion and home decor have become an increasing problem for our environment as we create billions of tons of unrecyclable textile waste every year.

Even environmentally conscious individuals sometimes fail to make the connection between what they purchase and the implications those purchases have. Someone who brings their reusable bags to the grocery store may not think twice about buying armloads of clothes from a fast fashion boutique, not realizing that doing so tells the company to make more of those items. Clothing is made cheaply and from undesirable ingredients (did you know that polyester is actually a petroleum product??) is a main contributor to pollution and dangerous working conditions. One has to look no further than the disaster at Rana Plaza to see just how tragic these conditions can be.

We have to do better. We MUST do better.

I am passionate about finding sustainable items for you and your home. These items could be secondhand, come from makers and suppliers who know their supply chain intimately, or use textiles that can be reused or repurposed. Sourcing these items is exceptionally time consuming and can be overwhelming, or unavailable, for many individuals. This is where I come in!

Whether you consider becoming a client or attend one of my pop-up sales, I hope to provide well chosen items for you and your home, and at a cost that does not come at the expense of our planet. If you are curious about how our modern day consumerism hurts us and communities worldwide, feel free to reach out. It is my passion and I love talking about it!
