how we roll (and what we love)

craftsmanship
Every sketch, stroke, and stitch stands upon years of design, textile, and artistic expertise accrued across decades
local & reuse
Thrifted and 2nd-hand finds are core materials; from art supplies, papers, textiles, and unexpected treasures
eco-friendly
A reuse-driven process fuels our craft; rescued materials are repurposed with care, sparing them from our landfills
a human touch
our creations are from the heart; no heavy algorithms or factories … just artistic intention & a love for craft

about our handcrafted items

for handmade & handcrafted customers:

please note that most physical items listed for sale that we’ve crafted ourselves are:

  • usually limited in quantity
    some items are single-runs; it all depends on just how much of a sourced or found item we have to work with at the time of production
  • use thrifted and second-hand supplies
    this means we’ve sourced the materials (most of the time) right from our own neighborhoods (and sometimes, our own domestic travels throughout the US)

For these reasons, some handmade items may be limited to smaller quantities.

handcrafted customers should also note:

  • sourcing local, reuse materials means materials are sometimes limited to what we find; in such cases, when the materials run out, that’s it; there’s no international manufacturing or mass production for such items;
  • because one-of-a-kind, handcrafted items are extremely limited, they go fast so don’t wait too long when they’re listed because folks will quickly scoop them up and when they’re gone, that’s usually it;

In sum, our handcrafted items are truly limited; there is no “inventory” to order more from so it’s a “first come, first purchase” shopping situation when such goods are listed.
