up*cycled: given new life, turning something old into something new
I love to thrift shop and one of the things I love most about thrift shopping is finding things that have so much possibility.
While you may know that a lot of my hair accessories feature vintage and upcycled earrings or brooches, I am excited to take the whole upcycling thing to a whole new level. :)
What was once a tweed skirt is being transformed into part of my new line of pillows.
The base of the pillow is a wool-felt blend. The silhouette is a hand-drawn, hand-cut creature that I machine stitch onto the wool.
The result is a one-of-a-kind, fuzzy fall-inspired pillow.
Expect them in the shop next week!
