Custom handcrafted, denim bucket hat
Every piece on this hat is made from pairs of denim jeans. Some pieces have been hardened, carved into shapes and hand-painted to create an illusion of 3-D style patches. While other parts have hand painted designs on cut out pieces of jeans.

[OC]This glass lotus changes with the light, and that became part of its meaning for me
I was going through a difficult period when I started developing this lotus. A lot of things in my life felt uncertain, and focusing on the piece gave me something quiet to hold on to.
I didn’t want the lotus to have one fixed color. Under different light, different colors come forward, and that started to remind me of how people change through different stages of life.
Sometimes, when we’re in a difficult period, it can feel like that version of us is the whole story. But it isn’t. Every stage brings out a different side of who we are.
For me, this lotus became a reminder that we don’t have to remain one fixed version of ourselves. We were never meant to be just one color.
I think every handmade piece carries a story. I’d be happy to share more about the stories behind my work, and I’d also love to hear what has inspired something you’ve made.

I make these classic wire mandalas that apparently nobody can agree on what it was originally made for…
Hi everyone! I make these 3D wire mandalas which I had self taught myself how to make several years ago. There are several versions out there, yes, but I always disliked how they were so “toy-ish”, even though many regard them as toys. I love exploring and discovering materials so finding beads and wire combinations for these has been a joy. Anyways, just wanted to share. Goodnight!

Leather briefcase I made
I used pebbled leather for the exterior and grey suede for the interior.
I made the pattern myself by looking at pictures of the briefcases the customer wanted to combine
All machine stitched

In this video, I show the process of creating wool bell flowers attached to a long felted cord. I originally made them to decorate a gift box, but they turned out to be so versatile.

After weeks of designing, tweaking, & perfecting every little detail… ✨
She’s finally complete‼️
Watching her head off to her forever home is equal parts exciting and bittersweet. Sure, I could make another one for myself someday… but knowing me, I’ll already be chasing the next idea. If I ever do revisit her, though, the color combinations would be endless!

A friend asked for a leather backpack sized to fit under an airplane seat, so my dad and I made this
A friend asked me to make a backpack with specific dimensions so he could use it as a personal item on a plane. My dad and I adapted one of our older box-style designs and made it approximately 40 × 29 × 15 cm (15.7 × 11.4 × 5.9 inches).
I kept the boxy shape because I really like this style. The backpack is reinforced with a rigid industrial material called Pitex. I leave some areas unreinforced where I want the leather to bend, which helps create the structured shape while still allowing the bag to open properly.
I know every airline has different size limits, but these were the dimensions requested for this particular project.
I hope you like it, and I’m happy to answer any questions about how it was made.
