Introducing:Golden Hours
PART 1. The Tote Bag
The heart of my new collection, Golden Hours, is my daughter, Adelina. Her spirit has reminded me of parts I had forgotten of myself and reminded me to play. The Primary Tote is inspired by the first mark we make as kids, when we realize we can have an effect and voice in the world.
I had so much fun cutting tiny pieces of fabric to make design decisions
PART 2. The Collages
When I was in school, I made collages inspired by memories or to capture inspiration for a collection, but they were always just for me.
As I returned to working with collage this past year, I realized that the collages were a part of the same story as the tote bag. A new chapter can feel like wearing a mosaic of joy and new perspectives, but can also carry the discomfort of trying to fit into old places with new wings.
The first lemon coin purses I made in 2015!
PART 3. Lemons and beyond
A reoccurring theme in the collages was lemons and I thought this would be a wonderful time to bring back a small batch of lemon coin purses. I will also have some surprise products that won’t be mentioned until the day of release on September 14th. I will continue to share details about this collection and the inspiration in my newsletter so make sure you subscribe.
