meet the designer
hi! i'm so glad you're here. a little about me... i’m somewhat fascinated with things that are old. my heart is affected by the smell of libraries and piles of old books. aged images, textures, fabrics, old photographs—all of it is beauty.
i’m especially excited about the concept of old stuff made new. it’s cool because it feels like redemption—that beauty can be found in things worn and faded and somehow be remade.
to those of you who have supported me, cheered me on, come alongside, “liked” VintageRemade on Facebook or helped get the word out about what we’re doing, thank you, thank you, thank you!
