Laura had several wraps she was considering using to make herself a bomber jacket.

She entrusted me with two different ones for the exterior and interior, and I sent her some fabric options scraps for the sleeves... Once everything was chosen and armed with her precise measurements, I embarked on making this jacket, which I really enjoyed creating and which I would have liked to keep for myself... ;)

i love it so much! instantly my fav jacket ever 🤣 the fit is wonderful, finally a jacket with long enough arms!
thank you so so so so much again 🥰
[...] i‘ve been wearing the bomber jacket whenever the weather permits and i love it sososoSO much!

Common questions

What kinds of objects can you create, beyond bags and wallets?

Probably more than you'd imagine!

Here's what I can make from your sentimental fabrics:

Leather goods: backpack, crossbody, belt bag, handbag, sling bag, travel bag, tote, clutch, pouch, coin purse, wallet...

Accessories: pocket mirror (Ocebo'), babywearing mirror (Coucou Hibou), tie...

Textile/clothing: bomber jacket (child or adult), low slippers or ankle booties (sizes EU 25 to 47)...

Textile art: Kinusaiga panel, a Japanese craft technique, very graphic, which transforms your fabrics into a framed wall piece.

If you have an idea that's not on this list, bring it up anyway. I haven't yet met a request I couldn't find some way to approach. And if I genuinely can't make it work, I'll tell you honestly from our very first conversation.

Can I order a bespoke transformation as a gift for someone?

Yes, and it's one of the most thoughtful gifts I've seen people give.

Offering someone a piece made from a fabric that belongs to them (or that belonged to a loved one) is a rare and deeply considered gesture. It takes a little organisation, but it's entirely doable.

A few practical points:

  • You contact me and manage the whole project: the recipient doesn't need to be involved if you want to keep the surprise;
  • You'll need to get hold of the fabric discreetly;
  • I can help you choose the right model if you're unsure what would suit the person best;
  • A thoughtful gift wrap can be arranged on request.

Tell me about your idea during a discovery call, and together we'll imagine something truly unforgettable.

How does payment work?

As standard, payment is split into 3:

  • 40% when you order, as a non-refundable deposit;
  • 30% when I start working;
  • 30% when it ships, for the balance.

You can pay by bank transfer (preferred), card or PayPal.
