Homegrown Crafts

About:

Homegrown Crafts is a one woman home based studio built from the ground up. I craft, create, and re purpose using the skills I have collected over the years. Homegrown Crafts is dedicated to providing quality fiber, jewelry, and up-cycled goods that are functional, visually pleasing, and environmentally conscious. My designs range from elegant and simple to playful and intricate. In this day of mass-produced, cheap, commercial goods, it just feels right to offer people something better. I decided to open my business to provide refreshingly different and lively functional art. It’s important now more than ever to be conscious of our impact on this planet. Always being on the lookout for ways to reduce leads me to unique and vintage finds. Recycling these finds connects otherwise disposable goods with someone who can use and appreciate them.

FIBERS

I have always had a passion for sewing and working with fabric. I love to combine vibrant prints with rich textures to create a variety of fun and functional fabric goods. In addition to these items, I also design and sell my original cross stitch and hand embroidery stitches and patterns. This process really allows me to share some of the joy of what I do. It’s so exciting to stitch a design for the first time and watch it come to life with color and texture.

JEWELRY

I believe that jewelry can be more than just another accessory. I use materials and colors to create wearable art. Drawing inspiration from the natural world has helped me create vibrant, unique, and one of a kind pieces. Working on custom jewelry orders, or any special requests, gives me an opportunity to collaborate and meet individual needs.

REUSED AND RECYCLED

In an effort to reuse, I find potential in something and re purpose it to create functional and special treasures. It’s exciting to be able to use my talents to give old objects a new breath of life. By offering raw materials like fabric, jewelry supplies, and vintage finds not only am I able to reduce waste, I am able to have a hand in other artists creative pursuit.
