Wearable Art

Inserito da nina il 12 March 2011

Seems special occasions are the only time we make time for  and enjoy seeing if  a garment would express our emotions of that wonderful day.

Something organic , of the earth , and with roots and history ….unique and crazy beautiful ! made with your  favorite colors and some of your  own sentimental musings,  poetry, or favorite images ,  like four leaf clovers and Daisey chains….Anything  in an artist hands can transform into  and onto spiritual ceremonial garments.

That’s why i love to choose antique and vintage textile offerings to mix in with feathers and embroidery  , pattern of the past, and wondurus stuff from right here and now. Yum, sounds good enough to eat!

come on lets play ,

let’s make something wonderful

that’s never been seen before ……
